Campylobacter jejuni and closely related organisms are established enteropathogens, resulting in diarrhea and often dysentery in susceptible children and adults (6). These organisms also cause asymptomatic infections, which are especially frequent in children residing in developing countries, who appear to be exposed frequently from an early age.
