The pulmonary manifestations of ulcerative colitis (UC) are rare and include inflammation of small and large airways, parenchymal disease and serositis among others. A substantial proportion of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, particularly those with ulcerative colitis presents positive ANCA, most p-ANCA pattern.
