ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We report an adolescent girl with long standing spondyloarthritis and chronic diarrhea. Colonoscopy and biopsy revealed microscopic colitis. All serology and HLA-B27 were negative. This case is reported for its rarity and the need to evaluate gut in chronic arthritis to achieve clinical remission.

Chronic diarrhea; Microscopic colitis – not otherwise specified; Sacroiliitis
