This review covers skin diseases associated with ulcerative colitis (UC), categorizing them into seven groups. These cutaneous manifestations often appear after UC onset and correlate with disease activity, aiding in patient evaluation.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Internal Medicine

Context:

  • Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Cutaneous manifestations are frequently observed in UC patients.
  • Understanding these skin conditions is crucial for comprehensive UC management.

Purpose:

  • To review and categorize the spectrum of skin diseases associated with ulcerative colitis.
  • To highlight the relationship between cutaneous manifestations and UC disease activity.
  • To emphasize the diagnostic and prognostic value of skin findings in UC.

Summary:

  • This review categorizes ulcerative colitis-associated skin diseases into seven groups: pyoderma gangrenosum (PG), erythema nodosum (EN), acneiform eruption, aphtha, bullous diseases, urticarial vasculitis, and pyostomatitis vegetans.

  • Most skin manifestations appear after UC diagnosis and often parallel the disease's clinical course.
  • While pathomechanisms remain unclear, these dermatological signs are vital for assessing UC disease activity.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a structured overview of UC-related skin conditions for clinicians.
    • Enhances understanding of the connection between gastrointestinal and dermatological health in UC.
    • Supports the use of cutaneous findings as indicators of UC severity and progression.
