Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections are generally thought to be opportunistic especially in the setting of an immunosuppressed host. We present an unusual case of CMV colitis with liver abscess observed in an immunocompetent patient. The right diagnosis was made after implementation of Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization (CISH) on colonic biopsy tissue. Our purpose is therefore to familiarize fellow colleagues and clinicians with possible role of CISH in the diagnosis of this entity.
