Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV), a double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid virus, belongs to the Herpesviridae family. The seroprevalence of CMV varies from 40 to 100% depending on the population studied or detection method used. Infection by CMV is not a rare disease and is frequently observed in immunocompromised hosts with hematological or immunological diseases or under treatment with glucocorticoids or immunosuppressants. CMV infection can manifest as asymptomatic, constitutional symptoms or tissue-invasive diseases. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is one of the most commonly involved systems and associated with 30% of tissue-invasive diseases among immunocompetent patients. GI involvement in CMV infection most commonly involves the colon. Upper GI tract involvement, especially CMV gastritis, has rarely been recognized or reported.
