Cytomegalovirus infection is generally asymptomatic in immunocompetent patients but can also provide a wide spectrum of clinical and biological signs. We report the case of a cytomegalovirus infection in an immunocompetent adult mimicking giant cell arteritis associated with polymyalgia rheumatica and complicated with pulmonary embolism. We review and discuss the venous prothrombic properties of CMV in immunocompetent patients.
巨细胞病毒感染在免疫功能正常的患者中通常无症状，但也可表现出广泛的临床和生物学体征。我们报告了一例免疫功能正常的成年人巨细胞病毒感染病例，该病例酷似与风湿性多肌痛相关的巨细胞动脉炎，并并发肺栓塞。我们回顾并讨论了免疫功能正常患者中巨细胞病毒的静脉血栓形成特性。
