Oral CMV lesions and the HIV infected. Early recognition can help prevent morbidity



GS Heinic, D Greenspan, and JS Greenspan

Once recognized, however, oral CMV lesions can be successfully treated in most cases. Moreover, early recognition permits prompt evaluation for CMV retinitis or disseminated CMV infection, and may help prevent morbidity caused by CMV.
