Abstract

ABSTRACT Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is recognized as the leading cause of antibiotic‐associated diarrhea. There are several case reports of C. difficile enteritis in patients who have undergone colectomy and end ileostomy or ileal pouch‐anal anastomosis. This case report describes a unique case of recurrent C. difficile enteritis following proctocolectomy and ileoanal pouch, treated successfully with faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) via anterograde and retrograde delivery into the small bowel.
