Cytomegalovirus hemorrhagic colitis in an immunocompetent patient with COVID-19 infection: A case report

Abstract

In coronavirus disease-19, we should suspect the opportunistic coinfections even in immunocompetent individuals. In the presence of recurrent gastrointestinal problems, colonoscopy should be done with biopsy and histopathology to diagnose the opportunistic infection, such as cytomegalovirus colitis, in patient with coronavirus disease-19. Here, we report a case of immunocompetent male with coronavirus disease-19 presenting with per rectal bleeding diagnosed as cytomegalovirus colitis.
