Based on this rare case of UC concomitant with CMV infection, bSS and AML, we recommend that it is important to distinguish between an acute UC flare and opportunistic infections, especially in patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy, and monitor EIMs and comorbidities timely. Particular attention should be paid to cancer surveillance. Clinicians should be mindful of these facts to adopt optimal therapeutic options to address all aspects of UC. Early initiation of biological therapy may be of benefit to patients with newly diagnosed severe UC.
