It is well known that herpes viruses are pantropic; therefore, herpes infections have a varied clinical picture. There are studies establishing a connection between the course of inflammatory bowel diseases, the effectiveness of their treatment, and the detection of herpesvirus DNA in the mucous membrane of the colon. The article examines a case of reactivation of a chronic herpetic infection with a predominant clinical picture of colitis against the background of immunosuppression after successive coronavirus SARS-Cov-2 and rotavirus infections. Against the background of antiviral therapy, clinical improvement was noted, laboratory parameters and histological analyzes were normalized.

Key words: Inflammatory bowel diseases, immunosuppression, coronavirus infection SARS-Cov-2, herpes viruses, CMV, EBV, HHV6, recurrent infections, lymphadenopathy.
