👉 Lepidotic is a medical condition characterized by inflammation and destruction of cells in the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, typically leading to ulcers or perforation. It can be caused by an infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae, but it can also occur in other bacteria and viruses. It's important to note that this term is not specific to any particular disease, as it could refer to a wide range of conditions affecting the gastrointestinal tract.
