ABSTRACT
Gastrointestinal cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease causes substantial morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients, especially in transplant recipients and those who infected with HIV. Although acute infection is generally asymptomatic or produces only non-specific symptoms in the immunocompetent host, acute CMV infection accompanies gastrointestinal ulceration in a small number of patients. The colon is the most common site of the infection, although it may occur in other gastrointestinal tract. CMV infection associated with simultaneous esophageal and colonic ulcers has not been reported in Korea. We report a patient with subarchnoid hemorrhage who had suffered from simultaneous esophageal and colonic ulcers associated with CMV infection which showed characteristic histologic findings of CMV infection.
