ABSTRACT
To date, the association of SARS-CoV-2 infection with the reactivation of herpes viruses has been determined. This has been proven not only by the results of laboratory studies, but also by a clinically confirmed subsequent manifestation of the herpetic process. The article describes a clinical case of Epstein-Barr viral and cytomegalovirus infections reactivation after COVID-19. The child was diagnosed with anicteric form of hepatitis of herpetic etiology. Hepatitis, moderate anicteric form. During treatment, the patient's condition improved. Complete clinical recovery with normalization of the activity of alanine and aspartate aminotransaminases occurred 1 month after the onset of the disease, but the level of lymphocytes and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase still remained moderately elevated. According to the ultrasound of the abdominal organs, the size of the liver returned to normal. The presented case illustrates that mixed infections are a quite possible situation during the COVID-19 pandemic, which must be taken into account when working with such patients.
