Abstract

Clostridium difficile generally causes diarrhoea and colitis. Small-bowel infections are considered to be rare. Twelve cases of ileal C. difficile infections are presented, including the first reported case proven to be caused by the hypervirulent BI/NAP1/027 strain. This case series suggests that small bowel involvement in C. difficile infections may be more frequent than previously thought.
