Extraintestinal Manifestations
Crohn's disease and UC both affect organs other than the intestines. Most extraintestinal manifestations are more common in UC and Crohn's colitis than in Crohn's disease limited to the small bowel.

crohn's disease is associated with ..skin= erythema nodosum
joints - migratory polyarthritis
liver = cholangitis
and uveitis
however UC is largely ass with only pyoderma gangrenosum and primary sclerosing cholangitis
UC has more ass with colon ca than Crohn's
but not extraint manifestation
reference is FA step 1 , kaplan lectures , and harrison
