Coming soonRecurrent *Clostridioides difficile* infection is a gastrointestinal disease characterized by the return of symptom-producing colonic infection within eight weeks following the successful resolution of an earlier episode.
It most commonly affects older adults, individuals exposed to broad-spectrum antibiotics, and hospitalized or immunocompromised patients.
Pathophysiologically driven by persistent gut microbiota dysbiosis and impaired mucosal defense, residual endospores germinate into toxin-producing vegetative bacilli that induce colonic inflammation, causing watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, and potential progression to pseudomembranous colitis or toxic megacolon.
