Chronic diarrhea was the presenting symptom. Etiologic agents were diagnosed only at postmortem evaluation. CMV intranuclear inclusions were seen in the terminal ileum, colon and venniform appendix. Cryptosporidium oocysts were also present in the intestinal brush border of the colon. Improvement of diagnostic procedures such as colonie biopsy and the use of appropriate staining procedure for AIDS patients with diarrhea can help identify the cause of illness.Mahidol UniversityMedicineArticleSCOPUS
