Tracheobronchitis
due to herpes simplex virus is a well-recognized finding in cases of burns, debilitation, or immunosuppression.

The present report details the cytologic and virologic diagnosis of herpetic
tracheobronchitis
in a patient with carcinoma of the lung and
alcoholic fatty liver
. Respiratory cells with herpetic infection cytologically showed less tendency to multinucleation than the characteristic herpes-infected cells of squamous epithelium, which may be a source of diagnostic confusion.
