This case report describes an AIDS patient with a cytomegalovirus (CMV) colitis. A CT scan of the abdomen showed a thick colonic wall, producing a target sign. CT scanning of the abdomen may be useful in patients suspected of CMV rectocolitis in order to decide whether a rectosigmoidoscopy or a complete colonoscopy should be performed. A definitive diagnosis of CMV rectocolitis can only be made by intestinal biopsy.
本病例报告描述了一名患有巨细胞病毒(CMV)结肠炎的艾滋病患者。腹部CT扫描显示结肠壁增厚,出现靶征。对于疑似CMV直肠结肠炎的患者,腹部CT扫描可能有助于决定是否应进行直肠乙状结肠镜检查或全结肠镜检查。CMV直肠结肠炎的确诊只能通过肠道活检来做出。
