Long-term follow-up of fecal microbiota transplantation for treatment of recurrent clostridium difficile infection in a dual solid organ transplant recipient

Abstract

Clostridium difficile infection is one of the most frequent causes of healthcare-associated infections, and its rates are also increasing in the community. Mounting evidence suggests that fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) may be effective; however, as there is paucity of data regarding the use of FMT in patients with solid organ transplants, we present a case of successful FMT in a patient with dual solid organ transplant.
