Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in the Treatment of Infection in Patients With and Without Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Tertiary Care Center’s Experience.

Abstract

infection (CDI) carries a large burden on the national public health with its high morbidity and mortality rates. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are generally at higher risk of infection, recurrence and complications. Therefore, the need for more reliable and safe therapy is necessary. Our study aims to evaluate long-term fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) outcomes in the general population compared to patients with IBD.
