dc.description.abstract | We report a newly recognized presentation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) enterocolitis in a 4-year-old girl with newly diagnosed HIV disease who presented with rectal prolapse. Gross findings showed multiple whitish punctate lesions. An endoscopic examination revealed multiple shallow ulcers and pseudomembranes along the colon. A biopsy from colonic tissues demonstrated CMV-like inclusion bodies. A direct immunofluorescence assay using specific CMV monoclonal antibody was positive for CMV-infected cells in specimens from the rectal smear. | en_US |
