| 内容記述 | Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is an intestinal infection caused by intestinal dysbiosis due to exposure to antibiotics. We describe the case of a 2-year-old girl who developed CDI after antibiotic treatment for acute appendicitis. She presented to our hospital with fever, abdominal pain, and frequent diarrhea. She was diagnosed with acute appendicitis following abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography and was treated with cefmetazole for 5 days. Eight days after discontinuation of cefmetazole treatment, she experienced abdominal pain, associated with the passage of loose stools. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed no swelling of the appendix. Both the Clostridium difficile antigen and toxin tests were positive. She was diagnosed with CDI due to her recent antibiotic treatment for acute appendicitis. Intravenous metronidazole (30 mg/kg/day) and probiotics were administered for 10 days. Her abdominal pain improved gradually and did not recur after discontinuation of metronidazole. The increasing global prevalence of CDI in low-risk populations and children necessitates its consideration in both pediatric patients, and even children without preceding underlying disease. There have been no reports on the development of CDI in patients receiving antibiotic treatment for appendicitis. If gastrointestinal symptoms relapse after an antibiotics treatment for acute appendicitis, CDI should be considered while investigating for possible relapse of appendicitis. | |||||
