Abstract
Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) are presented commonly with intestinal and extra intestinal manifestations.
Here we present a case 24 year old male, presented to our IBD clinic by bloody diarrhea; he was diagnosed as auto immune hemolytic anemia four years ago and continued on small dose steroid. He had abnormal gait, with diminution of vision and hearing.
Here we present this case that gathers some of rarest extra intestinal manifestations associated with ulcerative colitis including hematological, ocular, neurological and hearing. So, as they say calamities do not usually come alone, but fortunately these manifestations were diagnosed early and our patient received steroid and antiTNF and was clinically much better.
