Abstract
Endoscopically detected ulcers and submucous haemorrhage are common fi ndigs related to cytomegalovirus infection. We report a case of cytome galovirus colitis in a patient seropositive for human inmunodeficiency virus. Endoscopic findings showed elevated, white-yellowish, small si ze plaques with an erythematous central depression, resembling those f ound in pseudomembranous colitis.
