Introduction: Extra-intestinal mainly articular features of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are common and may precede the IBD. Several well-documented reports have revealed that axial manifestations are the most frequent type of inflammatory arthritis which develops in patients with IBD. The frequent association of a number of autoimmune diseases in the same patient has also been described. However, RA associated with IBD is rare and the underlying mechanism remains unknown. Case Presentation: This report describes a 53-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis (UC) and who was diagnosed 14 years after the onset of IBD with RA, based on clinical, radiological and immunologic findings. Conclusion: Because of the paucity of data in this field, we reviewed the cases of overlap RA-IBD and we discussed in this article its treatment stemming from few reports. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
