Background:

  • Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections are common but rarely involve the male genital tract.
  • Tissue demonstration of CMV in the male genital tract is infrequently reported in medical literature.

Observation:

  • A case of extensive CMV prostatitis was identified in a homosexual patient.
  • The patient had acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and disseminated CMV infection.

Findings:

  • The study presents a rare instance of CMV prostatitis.
  • This finding contributes to understanding CMV tropism in immunocompromised individuals.
