ABSTRACT
Thirty six patients ofulcerative colitis were included in a controlled study and the lung functions were evaluated among them. There was statistically significant [<0.010] reduction in maximum voluntary ventilation [MVV], Diffusing capacity [DLCo] was also reduced. Though the reduction in DLCo was not statistically significant, the importance of this finding as compared to the controls has been discussed. The findings are suggestive of sub clinical restrictive ventilatory abnormality in ulcerative colitis
