  • Title: Cytomegalovirus as a cause of cecal ulcer with massive hemorrhage in a renal transplant recipient.
    Author: Patel NP, Corry RJ.
    Journal: Am Surg; 1980 Apr; 46(4):260-2. PubMed ID: 6247944.
    Abstract:
    Although cytomegalovirus disease following renal transplantation occurs frequently, ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract are not common. This report describes a patient with a single large cecal ulcer, with cytomegalovirus inclusion bodies located in the ulcer bed. The patient presented with massive rectal bleeding necessitating a right hemicolectomy. No other manifestations of systemic cytomegalovirus disease were present in this patient.
