title: [Solitary gastric ulcer due to cytomegalovirus: a cause of acute digestive hemorrhage].
abstract: A 29-year-old homosexual man, with acquired immune deficiency syndrome was admitted to the hospital for evaluation of severe and recurrent epigastric pain, and important weight loss of 3-5 month duration. An upper gastrointestinal GI hemorrhage required an endoscopic examination which demonstrated a larger ulcer of the gastric antrum interpreted as suspicious of malignancy. Gastric cytomegalovirus (CMV) inclusion bodies, indicating CMV infection, were detected in the biopsy tissue from the edge of the gastric ulcer.
