ABSTRACT

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) skin infections are multiple, the herpes simplex virus is a frequent etiology agent in these patients. Immunosuppression severity correlate with the appearance of chronic, extensive, deep and painful ulcers, with a preference for the perianal region and genitalia. Case reports of herpes simplex virus and cytomegalovirus co-infection in skin ulcers of immunosuppressed patients are few. We described a co-infection in a male patient with HIV clinical category c3.
