Clindamycin에 의한 위막성 대장염 = Clindamycin-Associated Pseudomembranous Colitis

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Pseudomembranous colitis(PMC) has been recognized as a severe gastrointestinal lesion associated with a variety of conditions.
In recent years, the majority of cases have been ascribed to antimicrobial treatment.
Clindamycin and lincomycin have been incriminated most often. Recent studies have shown that a toxin of Clostridium difficile is implicated as the cause of antibiotic-associated PMC. We experienced a female patient who developed diarrhea, abdominal pain and fever after having received clindamycin for 9 days. The PMC diagnosed by endoscopic biopsy.
The PMC seemed to be self-limiting after olindamycin was stopped. Described here a case of PMC with some review of literatures.
