Abstract

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a collection of chronic, idiopathic inflammatory/autoimmune disorders of the gastrointestinal tract characterized by relapsing and remitting episodes. In this case report, we will report a patient who has encountered ulcerative colitis related to mononeuritis multiplex as a rare clinical scenario. A 75-year-old male patient, with a prior medical history including long-standing hypertension, recurring episodes of peripheral joint arthritis, leg skin lesions reminiscent of erythema nodosum, and persistent chronic diarrhea over the past 2 years, was recently hospitalized at the rheumatology department of Imam Reza Hospital in Tabriz. Throughout the patient's hospital stay, a series of diagnostic assessments were conducted, encompassing procedures such as colonoscopy, electromyography and nerve conduction studies, echocardiography, renal ultrasonography, and standard hematological analyses. The patient underwent the following treatment regimen, which resulted in a significant improvement in his condition.
