 AB    This case report describes an AIDS patient with a cytomegalovirus (CMV)
       colitis. A CT scan of the abdomen showed a thick colonic wall, producing
       a target sign. CT scanning of the abdomen may be useful in patients
       suspected of CMV rectocolitis in order to decide whether a
       rectosigmoidoscopy or a complete colonoscopy should be performed. A
       definitive diagnosis of CMV rectocolitis can only be made by intestinal
       biopsy.
