| pubmed-article:6253747 | pubmed:abstractText | Type 2 Herpesvirus hominis was isolated from pustulovesicular lesions on the external genitalia of two chimpanzees. Histopathologic examination of biopsy specimens from both animals revealed typical herpetic changes which included necrosis, superficial ulceration acute inflammatory cell infiltration, multinucleated syncytial giant cells, and intranuclear inclusions. Large numbers of herpes-type viruses were demonstrated by electron microscopy in biopsy specimens from both animals. Serologic studies also demonstrated infection of these animals with Herpesvirus hominis. | lld:pubmed |
