An 80 year old man was admitted to hospital with a 4 month history of diarrhoea with blood and mucus. The diarrhoea could not be controlled by a variety of drugs and he died 7 weeks later. Rectal biopsy showed both intranuclear and intracytoplasmic inclusional bodies consistent with cytomegalovirus infection.
