    Background:

    • Chronic ulcerative herpes simplex virus infections are a recognized complication in immunocompromised individuals.
    • These infections can manifest in sensitive areas such as the sacral and perianal regions.
    • Distinguishing these from other ulcerative conditions, like decubitus ulcers, is clinically important.
