Sažetak

INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects rectum or extends to other parts of the colon. It has a relapsing and remitting course, usually extending over years. It also has extra-intestinal manifestations, including renal, like tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN). TIN is an inflammatory disease that affects renal tubules and the interstitium. Other causes include drugs and toxins. The first line of treatment for UC is 5-aminosalicylic acid (mesalazine). One of the rare complications of mesalazine is also TIN.
