Fecal microbiota transplant, its usefulness beyond Clostridioides difficile in gastrointestinal diseases

Abstract

Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) is currently recommended for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection. However, it is interesting to acknowledge the potential therapeutic role in other diseases associated with dysbiosis. This review will focus on the current and potential indications of FMT in gastrointestinal diseases, evaluating the available evidence and also exposing the necessary requirements to carry it out.
