Campylobacter jejuni is now recognised as a common cause of acute enteritis in Britain. A prospective study of 16 patients with campylobacter infection has been performed. Characteristic clinical features include an abrupt onset of symptoms and severe abdominal pain and blood with the diarrhoea. The rectal mucosa was abnormal in all 15 patients examined during acute illness but had returned to normal at follow up.
