Abstract

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) are important causes of viral esophagitis mainly in immunocompromised individuals. Both viruses lead to development of focal ulcerations in the esophagus. While there have been rare case reports of esophagitis in immunocompetent individuals, there has not been a single reported case of coinfection with both CMV and EBV in an immunocompetent individual and presenting with diffuse esophageal ulceration. We report a case of severe diffuse ulcerative esophagitis caused by EBV/CMV coinfection in an immunocompetent individual.

巨细胞病毒（CMV）和爱泼斯坦-巴氏病毒（EBV）是病毒性食管炎的重要病因，主要发生在免疫力低下的人群中。这两种病毒都会导致食管出现局灶性溃疡。虽然有罕见的免疫功能正常者食管炎病例报告，但还没有一例免疫功能正常者同时感染 CMV 和 EBV 并出现弥漫性食管溃疡的病例报告。我们报告了一例免疫功能正常者因 EBV/CMV 合并感染而导致严重弥漫性溃疡性食管炎的病例。
