Popis: This is a case report of disseminated cytomegalovirus infection which occured in 23-year-old male hemophiliac with AIDS. He has been receiving Factor VIII concentrate. Postmortem examination revealed generalized CMV infection in the lungs, the adrenal glands and the large intestine resulting in multiple organ system failure. These observations suggest that when Factor VIII concentrate used, careful evaluation of the pathogens such as ATL and HIV is essential.
