Clostridium difficile Infection in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Clostridium difficile Infection at Diagnosis and during the Disease Course of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Purpose Clostridium difficile colonization and infection are commonly associated with poor outcomes in patients with pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (PIBD). We aimed to investigate the prevalence of C. difficile colonization and infection at the time of diagnosis and to evaluate risk factors associated with the development of C. difficile infection during the course of PIBD treatment.

Fecal microbial transplant for the treatment of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease

The role of fecal microbial transplant (FMT) in the treatment of pediatric gastrointestinal disease has become increasingly popular among pediatric practitioners, patients, and parents. The success of FMT for the treatment of recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (RCDI) has bolstered interest in its potential application to other disease states, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). FMT...
