Virusemenia after cytomegalovirus mononucleosis
Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) was demonstrated for 15 months in semen from a male homosexual with a recent history of a mononucleosis-like illness. The male urogenital tract can harbor CMV for long periods, and sexual transmission of the virus is more likely in persons with multiple heterosexual or homosexual contacts.
