Abstract

Pediatric gastroenterology practitioners adopted different guidelines that focus on high-quality nutrition care for rare disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease in its two main forms: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. This chapter presents a case report of ulcerative colitis with extra intestinal manifestations in the form of right knee arthritis and hypo-chromic microcytic anemia in a 13 years old Egyptian boy who presented to the outpatient services with complains of frequent attacks of right knee pain and swelling, nausea, decreased appetite and food intake, along with significant weight loss. Attacks of diarrhea associated with abdominal cramping and progressive fatigue was reported at the first visit. The authors of this case chapter aimed to share their experience in diagnosing, managing and systematically follow up a pediatric ulcerative colitis patient.
