چکیده
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a clinical form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) presumed to have an autoimmune etiology. The coexistence of UC and aseptic subcutaneous abscess has been extremely rare and almost all are adult case reports or small series and very few pediatric cases have been reported. We describe a 15-year-old girl with UC complicated with concomitant aseptic subcutaneous abscess and arthritis. We review and discuss the subcutaneous sterile abscesses associated with UC.
