Abstract
Campylobacter jejuni is an infrequent cause of self limiting acute diarrheal disease in adults in the Indian subcontinent. We report the occurrence of a life threatening diarrhea due to C jejuni infection in a patient with immunoproliferative small intestinal disease. We postulate that immunosuppression due to malignancy, malnutrition and cancer chemotherapy was responsible for the unusually severe diarrhea.
