| Abstract: | Primary infection by cytomegalovirus in immunocompetent patients is usually unapparent. We report a case of severe acute cytomegalovirus infection in a young immunocompetent male with pulmonary and hepatic involvement and portal hypertension who recovered without specific antiviral therapy with complete resolution of sonographic signs of portal hypertension after 6 months. |
