Summary

Graves disease in ulcerative colitis:

The connection between Graves disease and Inflammatory bowel disease is well known in the literature, but thyroid disorders have not been considered extra-intestinal manifestations of ulcerative colitis. In most cases, the diagnosis of thyroid disease has preceded that of Inflammatory bowel disease. Early studies have suggested a relationship between thyroid abnormalities and ulcerative colitis . But it is still uncertain whether the coexistence of Grave's and ulcerative colitis diseases is due to a specific reason or a coincidence.
