Abstract
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.
