Clostridioides difficile Infections in Adult and Pediatric Intestinal and Multivisceral Transplant Patients: The Experience of a Single, Tertiary-Care Transplant Center From 2009 to 2018
Conclusions
For certain solid organ transplant recipients, an association between CDI and allograft loss, rejection, and mortality has been shown. Although limited by sample size, we observed that early CDI was not associated with those outcomes in the present investigation. Multicenter studies are merited to explore risk factors for CDI and associations with transplant-related outcomes in intestinal and multivisceral transplant recipients.
