RESUMO
Incidence, pathogenesis, diagnostic techniques and therapeutic management of CDI have prompted abundant and adequate recent literature. However, report on clinical manifestations of CDI is frequently biased by the type of patients selected, the retrospective nature of many papers, the epidemic or endemic characteristics of the population reported. This article seeks to review some less discussed clinical and epidemiological aspects of CDI trying to include the clinical manifestations of this disease in unselected populations and also including discussion of CDI in specific groups of patients such as patients without colon and rectum, pediatric and critical care patients.
