An unprecedented fatal case of pseudomembranous colitis (PMC) is described, associated with the use of topical antibiotics (neomycin and erythromycin base) during whole gut irrigation. This case was one of a cluster of five, occurring within a period of 4 months in 1978. These observations tend to support the hypothesis that disturbances in bacterial flora give rise to PMC and furthermore that the short-term use of antibiotics does not prevent the occurrence of PMC.
