The use of fecal microbiota transplantation in recurrent Clostridium difficile infection and coexistent inflammatory bowel disease remains unclear. A 61-year-old man with ulcerative pancolitis was diagnosed with a third recurrence of Clostridium difficile infection, previously treated with metronidazole, vancomycin and fidaxomicin. Fecal microbiota transplantation of an unrelated healthy donor ...

The Good’s syndrome is a rare immunodeficiency disease characterized by thymoma and hypogammaglobulinemia. most common cause of infection in patients with the recurrent sinopulmonary infection. One may assume that there could be an unknown immunocompromising condition such as cases chronic rhinosinusitis refractory to treatment. We experienced patient syndrome, presenting report this case brief...

conclusions though antibiotics are rarely indicated, they are often still used to treat rtis. the resulting increase in bacterial resistance, the lack of treatment efficacy, and drug-related side effects all underscore the need for alternative strategies to manage recurrent rtis. this article uses a typical pediatric case study to review central issues in the diagnosis and management of recurre...

background recurrent urinary tract infection (uti) due to vesicoureteral reflux (vur) is common in iraq. endoscopic treatment of vur is used with advantages over antibiotic prophylaxis and ureteral reimplantation. objectives this study was performed to assess the efficacy of a new agent, dexell, for treating patients with vur and its ability to manage recurrent uti. materials and methods this r...

Recurrent cystitis is a common clinical entity that is becoming increasingly challenging to manage. The current thought regarding the pathogenesis of these infections is evolving as new data emerges to suggest that some recurrences may originate from previously unrecognized reservoirs of uropathogenic Escherichia coli. This article will summarize recent conceptual changes with respect to the ae...

A randomised clinical trial of single dose trimethoprim against a seven day course of co-trimoxazole (trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole) for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection was carried out in 106 children aged between 2 and 16 years. Of the 50 children with confirmed urinary tract infections who were followed up 48 hours after treatment with a single dose of trimethoprim all...

background : the pathologies classified as urinary tract infections (uti) can have a deleterious effect on patients who have undergone a renal transplantation.  often recurrent utis will occur, leading to high morbidity, failure of the grafting process overall and even death.  the study presented here seeks to expand the knowledge of recurrent utis in the context of renal transplantation, what ...

Cirrhosis due to hepatitis C virus (HCV) is now the most common indication of liver transplantation in Western Europe and the United States. In the absence of effective prophylaxis, recurrent HCV infection is almost inevitable. Though the natural history and intermediate term outcome of recurrent HCV are now better documented, those factors which may influence the recurrence of hepatitis and co...

Effective therapies exist for the treatment of both vaginal trichomoniasis and bacterial vaginosis (BV). Recurrent trichomonas infection is uncommon, and significant metronidazole resistance remains rare. The management of metronidazole-resistant trichomoniasis is dependent on susceptibility studies, which can be used to guide higher doses of metronidazole therapy. Recurrent BV is common. A mec...
