Abstract

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) has been extensively researched in immunocompromised people, causing conditions such as colitis, retinitis, esophagitis, encephalitis, and pneumonitis. However, there are limited data on how the disease presents itself in immunocompetent hosts, apart from a self-limited mononucleosis-like syndrome. This case report presents CMV gastroenteritis causing gastroduodenal obstruction in an immunocompetent woman. It is important to consider CMV as a potential cause of various gastric pathologies in immunocompetent people. Further research is necessary to establish guidelines for diagnosing and treating this pathogen.

一名免疫功能正常患者因广泛的巨细胞病毒胃十二指肠炎导致胃出口梗阻

巨细胞病毒（CMV）在免疫力低下的人群中引起了结肠炎、视网膜炎、食管炎、脑炎和肺炎等疾病，对其进行了广泛的研究。然而，除了自限性单核细胞增多症样综合征外，关于该病如何在免疫功能正常的宿主中表现出来的数据十分有限。本病例报告显示，CMV 胃肠炎导致一名免疫功能正常的妇女出现胃十二指肠梗阻。将 CMV 视为免疫功能正常者各种胃病的潜在病因非常重要。有必要开展进一步研究，以制定诊断和治疗该病原体的指南。
