“…Even if CC is more prevalent in women of about fifty, there is no female predominance [2]. The CC may precede, occur concomitantly or follow-up the disease joint [3]. In our two patients, the gastrointestinal manifestation occurred 4 and 14 years after the onset of SpA.…”

“…Nevertheless, the association of a CC with an authentic SpA remains exceptional. To our knowledge, only 11 cases who met the ESSG classification criteria for SpA were reported in the literature (Table 1) [3, 17, 18, 21–27]. …”

“…The HLA-B27 is present in half the cases. The synovitis is usually nonerosive, nondeforming, and seronegative [3], although 2 cases of erosive arthritis have been reported (two men, aged 51 and 58, respectively, suffering from asymmetrical polyarthritis).…”

“…The joint disease usually responds to NSAIDs, SLZ, and low dose of oral glucocorticoids [3] but no well-codified treatment regimen is set. NSAIDs could induce a digestive flare in analogy with chronic inflammatory bowel diseases and raise a major therapeutic problem.…”

“…Many recent publications have shown that the incidence of CC is increasing [2]. A number of autoimmune diseases were reported to be associated with CC, in 17 to 40% of the cases [3]. However, spondylarthropathy (SpA) associated with CC has rarely been reported before.…”

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.
