Cerebral vasculitis and ulcerative colitis

Jeannie Nelson, MD, Margaret M. Barren, MD, Jack E. Riggs, MD, Ludwig Gutmann, MD and Sydney S. Schochet, Jr, MD

Departments of Neurology (Drs. Nelson. Riggs. and Gutmann), Medicine (Dr. Barron), and Pathology (Drs. Nelson and Schochet), West Virginia University School of Medicine, Morgantown, WV.

We describe morphologically documented necrotizing cerebral vasculitis in a young man with ulcerative colitis. This case supports the evolving concept that ulcerative colitis may be accompanied by systemic vasculitis. The cerebral vasculitis was treated successfully with immunosuppressive therapy.

Address correspondence and reprint requests to Dr. Nelson, Department of Pathology, West Virginia University Medical Center, Morgantown, WV 26506.

Presented in part at the thirty-sixth annual meeting of the American Academy of Neurology, Boston. MA, April 1984.

Accepted for publication September 20, 1985.
