  • Title: Pseudomembranous colitis in children and adults.
    Author: Bolton RP, Thomas DF.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; 1986 Jan; 35(1):37-42. PubMed ID: 3955286.
    Abstract:
    Pseudomembranous colitis remains a potentially lethal complication of antibiotic usage. Identification of Clostridium difficile as the major pathogen has led to a rational successful approach to therapy and has widened the spectrum of associated disease. The frequent asymptomatic colonization of healthy neonates by C. difficile remains an enigma.
