Abstract EN

Collagenous colitis is a recent cause of chronic diarrhea.

Cooccurrence with spondylarthropathy is rare.

We describe two cases: one man and one woman of 33 and 20 years old were suffering from spondylarthropathy.

They then developed collagenous colitis, 4 and 14 years after the onset of spondylarthropathy.

The diagnosis was based on histological features.

A sicca syndrome and vitiligo were observed with the female case.

The presence of colitis leads to therapeutic problems.

This association suggests a systemic kind of rheumatic disease of collagenous colitis.
