Conclusion
The association between UC and SLE seems to be a rare phenomenon and it
is not fully clear yet whether it is due to a common physiopathology or
not. on the other hand, we expected the serum protein analysis of our
patient to be in favor of polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia as she was
diagnosed with SLE, however, the results showed monoclonal gammopathy.
Epidemiological links between SLE and monoclonal gammopathy and to a
lesser extent ulcerative colitis has been suggested by previous studies,
but the unusual phenomenon we observed was the concurrency of all three
in a single case.
