Abstract
We describe acute mononeuropathy multiplex in a patient with chronic ulcerative colitis. The symptoms of neuropathy were well correlated with the disease activity of colitis. Both electrophysiological study and sural nerve biopsy revealed axonal degeneration. Mononeuropathy multiplex maybe an extraintestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis.
