Inflammation of the small bowel due to bacterial or viral infection; possible causative agents include rotaviruses, Campylobacter, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella bacterial species.<\/p>\n

\n

Inflammation of the small or large bowel, usually as a result of an infectious disease. The most common causative organisms include rotaviruses and other enteric viruses, Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Shigella, Campylobacter, and Yersinia species. A potentially severe presentation, pseudomembranous enterocolitis, may be induced by prolonged use of antibiotics allowing the overgrowth of Clostridium difficile.<\/p>\n
