Objective To report a case of gastric ulcer associated with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in immunocompetent for improving the clinical recognition of the disease. Methods A 69-year-old patient with gastric ulcer caused by CMV infection was admitted to the 900th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Team on August 10, 2020. Biopsies were performed at the gastric ulcer and biopsy gastric mucosa samples were measured by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemistry.The microscopic characteristics of the mucosal tissues, diagnosis and treatment experience of this case were analyzed and summarized. A literature review about CMV infection in gastric in inmmunocompetent patients was performed using PubMed search from database inception to July 2021. Results A total of 20 literatures were retrieved, involving 57 patients. A total of 58 patients were included in this article, including 39 males (67.2%) and 19 females (32.8%), with a ratio of men to women of 2.05:1. The average onset age of male was (52.4±16.0) years old, while (72.3±17.7) years old in female. The overwhelming majority of those patients were complicated with hypertension or type 2 diabetes mellitus. The most common symptoms were upper abdominal pain and gastrointestinal bleeding. The antrum of stomach was the most frequently affected site in gastric CMV disease, isolated gastric ulcer and multiple mucosal erosion were the main endoscopic appearance. CMV inclusion bodies were found either at the ulcer base or at the ulcer edges. There were 51.1% (24/47) of the patients treated with ganciclovir. However, 48.9% (23/47) of the patients were cured by symptomatic treatment. Conclusions On no consideration can clinically ignore CMV gastritis in adults without apparent immunosuppression when the symptoms as hematemesis, melena, and abdominal pain occur and antral gastric ulcer or multiple mucosal inflammation is seen endoscopically. Biopsies for CMV related tests, especially for pathological examination or histopathologic diagnosis are recommended. Antiviral therapy in people with clinical risk factors is essential for management of gastric CMV disease.
