ABSTRACT

La infección por citomegalovirus (CMV) debe ser investigada en pacientes sanos con cuadro pseudogripal consistente en fiebre, astenia, aumento inexplicado de los niveles de transaminasas y linfomonocitosis periférica. Es un cuadro relativamente frecuente, por lo que puede pasar totalmente desapercibido o con escasas manifestaciones clínicas, sobre todo en el paciente inmunocompetente. Los síntomas faríngeos y adenomegalias son menos frecuentes que en la infección mononucleósica por virus de Epstein-Barr. Presentamos el caso de un paciente sin factores de riesgo que presenta un cuadro febril prolongado y alteraciones hepáticas, con evolución espontánea a la normalización y serología compatible con infección por CMV(AU)


Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection should be investigated in healthy patients who have flu-like symptoms consisting of fever, fatigue, unexplained increase of transaminases and peripheral lymphomonocytosis. These are relatively common symptoms so they may pass completely unnoticed or with few clinical manifestations, especially in immunocompetent patients. Pharyngeal symptoms and swollen lymph nodes are less frequent than in mononucleosis infection caused by Epstein-Barr virus. We report a case of a patient with no risk factors who presented with persistent fever and liver alterations, which resolved spontaneously and with serological findings compatible with a recent CMV infection(AU)
