Abstract
The Epstein-Barr virus-positive mucocutaneous ulcer is an entity that has been recently accepted in the literature, included under the lymphoproliferative disorders. Some publications provide information about a limited number of cases describing lesions that mainly involve the oropharynx and skin. However, its rapid onset in the colon, causing a perforation, has not been reported.

1.- Se consideró como brote de C.U, sin tener evidencia endoscópica del mismo, previo a trat con Corticoides
2.- Hablan de brote, pero no se aportan si en la pieza se objetivaron datos de actividad inflamatoria en el resto del colon. 3.- Se realizó estudio de CMV con IHQ+/- PCR?.
4.- La perforación podría estar en relación con el tratamiento esteroideo
