ConclusionsChronic mucocutaneous HSV infection in AIDS patients remains a rare but regularly observed infection in very immunosuppressed patients or those with unstable immunity during HAART.

Despite efficient antiviral therapy, mucocutaneous healing is slow in the majority of cases. (Source: HIV Medicine)
