[Cytomegalovirus cholestasis in an immunocompetent host].

Primary infection or reactivation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) can induce in immunocompromised patients a severe disease depending on the type of immuno-suppression, and can affect multiple organs. On the other hand, the infection is benign and mostly asymptomatic in immunocompetent individuals who do not require antiviral treatment. Rare cases of primary infection have been documented.
