Abstract
Granulomatous hepatitis has been associated with many conditions, including chronic ulcerative colitis and sulfonamide therapy. We report a patient with ulcerative colitis in whom hepatic granulomatosis was associated with salicylazosulfapyridine (Azulfidine). Sulfonamides should be considered a possible cause of hepatotoxicity when used therapeutically in inflammatory bowel disease.Keywords
