[Herpes simplex (author's transl)].
About 1-2% recurrent herpes simplex infections are seen in adults. In childhood, secondary herpetic infections are very rare. In contrast, primary infections by herpes simplex virus are of great importance: herpes disseminatus neonatorum (type 2), gingivostomatitis herpetica (type 1), eczema herpeticum (type 1; in some cases, also type 2) and keratoconjunctivitis herpetica (type 1). The clinical and therapeutic data are discussed.
