Core Tip	This review summarizes the impact of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) outcome. Most of the studies showed that IBD patients with CDI have more of the whole range of short- and long-term worst outcomes than those without CDI. Patients with ulcerative colitis have more severe outcomes than those with Crohn’s disease. A prompt diagnosis and adequate treatment of CDI are of paramount importance to improve IBD patients’ outcome.
