Abstract: | In the last three decades, Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) has increased in incidence and severity in many countries
worldwide. The increase in CDI incidence has been particularly apparent among surgical patients. Therefore, prevention
of CDI and optimization of management in the surgical patient are paramount. An international multidisciplinary panel
of experts from the World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) updated its guidelines for management of CDI in
surgical patients according to the most recent available literature. The update includes recent changes introduced in
the management of this infection |
