Clostridium difficile in an oncology unit.

A L Brunetto1, A D Pearson, A W Craft, S J Pedler.   

Abstract

In one year 21 new cases of Clostridium difficile infection occurred on a paediatric oncology unit. Eleven cases were in a two month period. This infection should be regarded as a communicable disease. Investigations to detect C difficile should be carried out in children with malignant disease who have diarrhoea.
