Abstract
A 67-yr-old woman with a 25-yr history of Crohn's disease, maintained on near-continuous corticosteroids (prednisone 10 mg daily) over a 6-yr period, underwent ileocolic resection for obstruction. Pathology revealed Crohn's disease, multiple nodules of Kaposi's sarcoma, and cytomegalic inclusion bodies with confirmation of cytomegalovirus by shell vial immunofluorescence. Testing for HIV serum antibody has been repeatedly negative. Crohn's disease, Kaposi's sarcoma, and cytomegalovirus have been clinically in remission for 5 yr.Entities:
