Case description

Yellow/white mucosal plaques. PMC is diagnosed by assessing the patient on three levels: clinical evaluation, stool assays for enteric pathogens and visualization of the colonic mucosa. The first is the medical history and clinical presentation. A history of recent antibiotic use, recent hospitalization, intestinal surgery or residence in a chronic care facility may all predispose to PMC. Symptoms of watery diarrhea, abdominal pain or cramping and fever are typical.
