A case of severe diverticulosis in a patient with ulcerative colitis.

A 50-year-old female with ulcerative colitis (UC) (pancolitis) for 13 years was referred for a screening colonoscopy. At onset, she presented with severely active disease and required intravenous corticosteroids to induce remission. Since then, the disease has been in remission with oral mesalamine and azathioprine and she remains steroid-free, without new episodes of hospitalization. She was asymptomatic and had no other relevant medical history.
