Swaminath K Iyer, Lawrence J Handler, James S Johnston
PMCID: PMC2552700  PMID: 7310913

Abstract

A case of thrombophlebitis migrans in a patient with ulcerative colitis is presented. The occurrence of thrombophlebitis was associated with an exacerbation of ulcerative colitis and responded well with the treatment of the underlying colitis. Evidence for a hypercoagulable state in ulcerative colitis is presented.
