| Core Tip |
The fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a universally approved treatment plan for recurrent Clostridioides difficileinfection (CDI). We believe that early FMT is a better choice for patients with CDI and prior appendectomy even if they are not diagnosed as recurrent CDI. FMT can change the composition of patients' intestinal microbiota in a lasting way to prevent worse outcomes. |
