  • Title: [Primary herpetic esophageal infection in an immunocompetent patient].
    Author: Montalvo II, Yuste R, Rodríguez F, Gil I, Castiella A, Alzate LF, Arenas JI.
    Journal: Gastroenterol Hepatol; 1996 Dec; 19(10):511-3. PubMed ID: 9044750.
    Abstract:
    Herpetic esophageal primary infection is not a common event in immunocompetent patients. The case of a 27-year-old immunocompetent woman who developed herpetic esophagitis involving the whole esophagus as a manifestation of primary herpetic infection is presented. The endoscopic appearance initially suggested esophageal candidiasis, which is not an exceptional event.
