This is a retrospective study of 54 consecutive upper gastrointestinal endoscopies in marrow graft recipients performed to determine the incidence and distribution of CMV infection in symptomatic patients and to compare the sensitivities of 7 CMV detection techniques. At each endoscopy, 3 biopsies were obtained from the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Each of the 3 biopsies was assayed for CMV by different techniques. Enteric CMV was identified by one or more techniques in 52 of 486 (11%) biopsies from 14 infected patients. All patients infected with CMV initially had nausea and vomiting. In 13 of these patients, there was esophageal CMV, often associated with stomach (10 patients) and duodenal (7 patients) involvement. CMV infection of the esophagus was never identified cyto-logically in esophageal imprints or histologically, immunohistologically, or by DNA hybridization in esophageal epithelial cells. The most sensitive diag
