Özet
Primary cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection generally occurs during childhood/early adolescence and is usually an asymptomatic or mild and self-limiting disease in immunocompetent patients. Mononucleosis-like syndrome due to primary CMV may occur in middle-aged or advanced-aged adults, though rare. Three middle-aged patients from the same family admitted to our clinic with acute CMV infection. Two of the three cases were hospitalized, CMV antibodies were examined and at the same time the third case had an acute CMV infection. CMV transmission among middle-aged family members Is very rare. This study reports three cases of acute CMV infection and it's transmission from person to person in the same family.
