Abstract
Two cases of herpes simplex virus esophagitis diagnosed in vivo by cytologic examination and biopsy of the lesion are reported. The importance of and the criteria for the diagnosis of herpes esophagitis in vivo are discussed. An awareness by the clinician and pathologist of this lesion would probably result in a more frequent diagnosis of herpes esophagitis.
