Case report: Complete esophageal obliteration secondary to cytomegalovirus in AIDS patient

Abstract: HIV-related benign esophageal strictures have been reported secondary to idiopathic esophageal ulceration, cytomegalovirus (CMV) esophagitis, herpetic esophagitis, and increased sensitivity to radiation therapy. Despite extensive and deep nature of CMV ulceration, stricture formation is uncommon. There have been anecdotal reports of esophageal strictures secondary to CMV infection in HIV patients.

“…It has often been noted that there is resolution of CMV esophagitis with initiation of HAART and anti-CMV agents such as ganciclovir and foscarnet. However, they can lead to fibrous healing and stricture formation [14]. Such strictures resulting from fibrous healing usually respond well to repeated esophageal dilatations, unlike in this patient in whom bougie dilatation of the CMV stricture was unsuccessful.…”

“…Інфекційний (у тому числі при ЦМВ) езофагіт асоціюється з певними ускладненнями: патологічна моторика, непрохідність стравоходу, його перфорація, утворення свищів, вторинні бактеріальні інфекції та крововиливи [15][16][17]. Через дисфагію і/або одинофагію пацієнт, який вже має дефіцит маси тіла, не отримує необхідні поживні речовини.…”

“…Клиническая картина ИЭ, как правило, неспецифична и характеризуется дисфагией, одинофагией, иногда могут отмечаться лихорадка и боль за грудиной. В редких случаях ИЭ могут осложняться формированием стеноза пищевода, кровотечением и образованием свищей [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Терапевтическая тактика ведения детей с инфекционными стенозами пищевода продолжает обсуждаться.…”
