Cutaneous Polyarteritis Nodosa in a Patient With Ulcerative Colitis

Abstract
Skin disease is common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Described herein is a child with ulcerative colitis and cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa. Review of the literature suggests cutaneous polyarteritis must be considered as another skin lesion associated with inflammatory bowel disease. Cutaneous polyarteritis tends to run a chronic relapsing course independent of bowel disease, however.
