| pseudomembranous enteritis | Enterocolitis with the formation and passage of pseudomembranous material in the stools; occurs most commonly as a sequel to antibiotic therapy; caused by a necrolytic exotoxin made by Clostridium difficile. Synonym: pseudomembranous colitis, pseudomembranous enteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| colitis, pseudomembranous | Severe inflammation of the inner lining of the colon due usually to the clostridium difficile (C.difficile) bacterium, one of the most common causes of infection of the large bowel (colon) in the United States, affecting millions of patients yearly. Patients taking antibiotics are at risk of becoming infected with C. Difficile. Antibiotics disrupt the natural bacteria of the bowel, allowing C. Difficile bacteria to become established in the colon. Many persons infected with C. Difficile bacteria have no symptoms. These people become carriers of the bacteria and can infect others. In some people, a toxin produced by C. Difficile causes diarrhoea, abdominal pain, severe inflammation of the colon (colitis), fever, an elevated white blood count, vomiting and dehydration. Rarely, the walls of the colon wear away and holes develop (colon perforation), which can lead to a life-threatening infection of the abdomen. (12 Dec 1998) |

| pseudomembranous | <anatomy> Marked by or pertaining to a pseudomembrane. (18 Nov 1997) |
| pseudomembranous bronchitis | Inflammation of the bronchial mucous membrane, accompanied by a fibrinous exudation, which often forms a cast of the bronchial tree with severe obstruction of air flow. Synonym: plastic bronchitis, pseudomembranous bronchitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pseudomembranous colitis | <gastroenterology> A form of gastroenteritis which occurs when there is an over-growth of Clostridium difficile bacteria in the intestine. This can occur after long-term treatment with broad spectrum antibiotics. (25 Nov 1998) |
| pseudomembranous conjunctivitis | A non-specific inflammatory reaction characterised by the appearance on the conjunctiva of a coagulated fibrinous plaque that may be peeled off from intact epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pseudomembranous enterocolitis | Enterocolitis with the formation and passage of pseudomembranous material in the stools; occurs most commonly as a sequel to antibiotic therapy; caused by a necrolytic exotoxin made by Clostridium difficile. Synonym: pseudomembranous colitis, pseudomembranous enteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pseudomembranous gastritis | Gastritis characterised by the formation of a false membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pseudomembranous inflammation | A form of exudative inflammation that involves mucous and serous membranes; relatively large quantities of fibrin in the exudate result in a rather tenacious membrane-like covering that is fairly adherent to the underlying acutely inflamed tissue; the pseudomembrane usually contains (in addition to the dense network of fibrin) varying quantities of plasma protein, degenerated and necrotic elements from the affected tissue, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, bacteria, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enterocolitis, pseudomembranous | Acute inflammation of the small and large intestinal mucosa with formation of pseudomembranous plaques over superficial ulceration. It is commonly associated with antibiotic therapy and clostridium difficile is often implicated. In infants it is known as necrotizing enterocolitis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibiotic induced enteritis | <pathology> A condition where the normal intestinal bacteria (useful for digestion) are killed by the use of an antibiotic resulting in symptoms. (27 Sep 1997) |
| campylobacter enteritis | <pathology> A genus of bacteria that represents a number of different species that are pathogenic in man. Campylobacter jejuni is probably the second most common cause of waterborne diarrhoeal disease in the United States. Campylobacter pylori has been implicated as an aetiological factor in the development of gastritis and peptic ulcer disease. Common symptoms include abdominal pain, watery diarrhoea (may be bloody) and fever. (27 Sep 1997) |
| regional enteritis | A subacute chronic enteritis, of unknown cause, involving the terminal ileum and less frequently other parts of the gastrointestinal tract; characterised by patchy deep ulcers that may cause fistulas, and narrowing and thickening of the bowel by fibrosis and lymphocytic infiltration, with noncaseating tuberculoid granulomas that also may be found in regional lymph nodes; symptoms include fever, diarrhoea, cramping abdominal pain, and weight loss. Synonym: chronic cicatrizing enteritis, Crohn's disease, distal ileitis, regional ileitis, terminal ileitis, granulomatous enteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granulomatous enteritis | Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine primarily in the small and large intestines but which can occur anywhere in the digestive system between the mouth and the anus. Named after Burrill Crohn who described the disease in 1932. The disease usually affects persons in their teens or early twenties. It tends to be a chronic, recurrent condition with periods of remission and exacerbation. In the early stages, Crohn's disease causes small scattered shallow crater-like areas (erosions) called apthous ulcers in the inner surface of the bowel. With time, deeper and larger ulcers develop, causing scarring and stiffness of the bowel and the bowel becomes increasingly narrowed, leading to obstruction. Deep ulcers can puncture holes in the bowel wall, leading to infection in the abdominal cavity (peritonitis) and in adjacent organs.When only the large intestine (colon) is involved, the condition is called Crohn's colitis. When only the small intestine is involved, the condition is called crohn's enteritis. When only the end of the small intestine (the terminal ileum) is involved, it is termed terminal ileitis. When both the small intestine and the large intestine are involved, the condition is called crohn's enterocolitis (or ileocolitis). Abdominal pain, diarrhoea, vomiting, fever, and weight loss can be symptoms. Crohn's disease can be associated with reddish tender skin nodules, and inflammation of the joints, spine, eyes, and liver. Diagnosis is by barium enema, barium X-ray of the small bowel, and colonoscopy. Treatment includes medications for inflammation, immune suppression, antibiotics, or surgery. (the disease is also called regional enteritis). (12 Dec 1998) |
