Infección cecal por citomegalovirus en paciente apendicectomizado con colitis ulcerosa

Appendicular ulcerative colitis is not uncommonly associated with distal colitis. In addition, diffuse CMV infection complicating ulcerative colitis treatment is not unusual. By contrast, isolated, segmentary infection by CMV in the proximal colon is extremely rare. Until now, only three patients with localized CMV infection have been described, and all three cases occurred in the context of ileoanal anastomosis.
