Abstract

The Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional disorder of alimentary system, which may be caused by infectious gastroenteritis determined as post infectious irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS). The prevalence of PI-IBS is reported to be 4-36% in patients with infectious gastroenteritis. The exact mechanism leading to PI-IBS is not fully understood and some factors pertaining to infectious agent and host response may have a role. Rome IV diagnostic criteria provided new definition for PI-IBS. Though it is now considered a well-defined functional disorder of gastrointestinal system, no specific treatment is yet available for PI-IBS. This article reviews the latest issues on these heading about PI-IBS. © 2019 The Author(s).
