Pseudomembranous enterocolitis
Internal Medicine / Traditional Chinese Medicine
Pseudomembranous colitis is an acute necrotizing inflammation of the colonic mucosa, mainly occurring in the colon, and is covered with pseudomembranes. This disease is commonly seen after antibiotic therapy and is therefore an iatrogenic complication. It has now been confirmed to be caused by toxins of Clostridium difficile. Severe cases can be fatal.
