[Acute ulcerative colitis associated with cytomegalic inclusion virus in a non-immunodepressed patient (author's transl)].
A new case of acute ulcerative colitis associated with cytomegalic inclusion virus within the colonic wall is reported. Some unusual features are discussed, such as the absent defect in cellular or humoral immunity, the location of the lesion which were limited to the sigmoid colon, and the fatal outcome of the disease. The possible pathogenic relationship between cytomegalic infection and acute a chronic ulcerative colitis are reviewed.
