A case is reported which illustrates the presence of a duality of inflammatory diseases of the large bowel in chronologic order. The classic roentgenographic features of both diseases are presented in complete correlation with the clinical manifestations. Both the acute and subacute phases of each entity are demonstrated. The obliteration of the diverticula during the acute and subacute phases of the ulcerative colitis and their recurrence during remission identify the almost reciprocal relationship in this case. As was demonstrated in our earlier study,2 the individual diverticulum merits a detailed study for clues to early recognition.
