Abstract
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been emerging as an alternate treatment modality in the management of patients with dysbiosis by restoring abnormal gut microbiota composition through the transplantation of normal fecal microbiota from healthy donors. This technique has lately gained a lot of attention in the treatment of recurrent or refractory Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) owing to its high success rates combined with its favorable safety profile. FMT has also been attracting the interest of clinicians as a new treatment option for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).
