L. Heyries et al., GRANULOMATOUS HEPATITIS ASSOCIATED WITH A MONONUCLEOSIS SYNDROME CAUSED BY CYTOMEGALOVIRUS - 2 CASES REPORTED IN HEALTHY ADULT, La Revue de medecine interne, 15(11), 1994, pp. 744-746
In this study, the authors report two observations of granulomatous he
patitis. The secondary appearance of a mononucleosis syndrome, three w
eeks after the onset of fever, in healthy adults, evoked the diagnosis
of a cytomegalovirus infection. The authors insist on the histologic
and virologic differences of the CMV infection between the healthy adu
lts and the immunodepressed patients. They also note the difficulties
of the diagnosis of the CMV infection in healthy adults.
