Abstract

Human herpes simplex virus (HSV)-1 infection is acquired in childhood and persists throughout a person’s lifetime. Here, we present two cases from India; one showing symptoms of postpartum haemorrhage with disseminated intravascular coagulation, and the second one showing signs of acute encephalitis syndrome. The aetiological agent in both cases was identified as HSV-1 using the PCR method. The next-generation sequencing method retrieved ~97 % of the viral genome from the isolates of the clinical samples. The phylogenetic analysis of the retrieved genomes revealed that they belong to clade II of HSV-1. This study identifies a few sequence variations in the glycoprotein region of HSV-1 during two different clinical manifestations. There are a couple of papers that analyse variations in the glycoprotein region of clinical samples. Further, this study also highlights the importance of considering HSV-1 during differential diagnosis when analysing the nosocomial infection.
