    abstract = {Crohn's disease cannot be distinguished from ulcerative colitis on clinical
grounds, yet the two diseases are distinct syndromes with divergent
treatment and prognosis. IBD presents mainly with intestinal and
extraintestinal manifestations. The various extraintestinal manifestations
include musculoskeletal, mucocutaneous, hepatobiliary, hematologic,
vascular, ocular, renal and genitourinary manifestations. The study was
conducted with the approval from the institutional Ethical Committee,
Sree mookambika college of medical sciences . The duration of illness was
upto 10 years, at different stages of Inflammatory bowel disease. Patients
with the age group ranging from 15‐70 years were studied. The selected
patients were evaluated with detailed clinical history regarding duration
of the disease and symptomatology. Aphthous ulcer is present in 5.12%
of patients in our study. Sleisenger concluded that aphthous ulcers are
common among patients with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis but also
among healthy persons. At least 10% of patients with UC develop oral
aphthous ulcers. These lesions usually occur with flares of colitis and
resolve on control of the disease. It is present in 15.38% of the
participants. Out of the 2 cases of CD, angular stomatitis was presentin
one case. The aim was to study the clinical presentation of IBD in our
hospital and the extraintestinal manifestations of the disease. All cases
of bleeding PR who satisfied the clinical, colonoscopic and histologic
criteria of IBD were included as well as cases of proven IBD. Thirty nine
patients with inflammatory bowel disease were included in the study.
Colonoscopic examination of these patients were done after taking
proper consent.}
