Abstract

Cytomegalovirus is one of the most common viral pathogens, which, in some cases, leads to organ specific infections such as gastrointestinal manifestations that have a significant risk of morbidity and mortality. However, cytomegalovirus infection is rare in an immunocompetent host. Herein, we report a case of cytomegalovirus gastritis in a 54-year-old immunocompetent patient, diagnosed through upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with biopsies and serology.

Özet

Sitomegalovirüs, bazı durumlarda morbidite ve mortalite ile önemli gastrointestinal manifestasyonlar gibi bazı organ spesifik enfeksiyonlara yol açan yaygın bir viral patojendir. Immün sistemi sağlam bir konakçıda sitomegalovirüs enfeksiyonu nadirdir. Biz burada biyopsiler ve seroloji ile üst gastrointestinal endoskopide tanı konulan 54 yaşındaki bir hastada sitomegalovirüs gastrit olgusunu sunuyoruz.
