title: Listeriosis associated with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in an HIV-infected patient.
abstract: An HIV-infected man developed listeriosis six days after an upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy. Although listeriosis has been rarely described following lower GI endoscopy, we believe this is the first case related to upper GI endoscopy.
