Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in immunocompromised patients can cause significant morbidity and mortality. Early recognition and treatment helps to improve outcome. We present a case of postrenal transplant CMV infection causing both upper and lower gastrointestinal infection and symptoms. Patient developed significant co-morbidity which required multiple hospital admissions and therapeutic interventions.
