    INTRODUCTION: Skin lesions induced by cytomegalovirus are rare and usually non-characteristic. CASE REPORT: A 32-year-old women with AIDS developed about twenty unpainful ulceronecrotic lesions on the extension aspect of the members and the trunk. Histology examination and in situ hybridization favoured cytomegalovirus infection of the skin.
