 AB    Esophageal candidiasis, along with gastritis caused by
       cytomegalovirus--CMV--, is a common opportunistic infection in
       immunodepressed patients. A clinico-pathological description is made of
       a human immunodeficiency virus-positive female (group IV-C-2) with a
       history of odynophagia and dysphagia resistant to treatment. The light
       microscopy and immunohistochemical study of an endoscopic
       esophago-gastric biopsy allowed the diagnosis of moniliasic esophagitis
       associated with CMV-induced gastritis. Emphasis is placed on the
       efficacy of immunohistochemical techniques over other methods in
       diagnosing CMV infection.
