Abstract

A 62-year-old Japanese woman with ulcerative colitis (UC) had episcleritis and erythema nodosum. Oral administration of corticosteroid with granulocytapheresis improved all these diseases. Extraintestinal manifestations such as ocular and skin complications are infrequent, especially in Japan, in patients with UC. Although concurrent onset of episcleritis and erythema nodosum associated with UC is also extremely rare, clinical course in this case suggests a possible association among ulcerative colitis, episcleritis and erythema nodosum.<br>
