PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS COLITIS COMPLICATING ULCERATIVE COLITIS
Digestive Endoscopy, 2010Clostridium difficile toxin (CD toxin) causes antibiotic‐associated colitis, or pseudomembranous colitis (PMC). Although CD toxin is sometimes found in the stools of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), UC is rarely complicated by PMC. We report herein a case of PMC complicating UC, and present a review of the literature.
