Disseminated cytomegalic inclusion disease in an adult with cirrhosis of liver and review of literatures.
We reported a 44 year old man with micronodular cirrhosis who eventually died from massive hematemesis and melena. At postmortem studies, there were disseminated cytomegalic inclusion bodies detected in various organs. In liver, intranuclear inclusion bodies were observed in cirrhotic liver. We discussed here possible pathogenesis of CMV (cytomegalovirus) infection in adults, in reviewing literatures.
