Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common viral opportunistic infection in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), affecting up to 90% of patients. CMV can manifest as primary, latent or chronic persistent infection, most commonly appearing as retinitis, encephalitis or gastrointestinal disease. Other less common presentations, including otolaryngologic expression of the virus, have also been noted. Described here is the first known documented case of CMV with both chronic sinusitis and nasal polyposis in an AIDS patient.
