Abstract
Herpes esophagitis is a very rare disease caused by Herpes simplex virus (HSV). The disease occurs primarily in immunocompromised patients, including post-chemotherapy, immunosuppression with organ transplants, and in AIDS patients but Herpes esophagitis can also occur in immunocompetent individuals. We report a case of 57yrs old male presented with complaint of epigastric pain.
