Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease that limits to colon mucosa, which characterised by relapsing and remitting abdominal pain and diarrhea. Neurological complications in UC patients are usually underestimated. The most frequently reported neurological disorders associated with UC are peripheral neuropathy, cerebrovascular disease and demyelinating disease. However, acute transverse myelitis (TM) is rarely reported in UC patients.
