Core Tip	The relationship between ulcerative colitis and diabetes mellitus is intriguing, full of practical and speculative information, useful for clinical practice and basic research. Diabetes mellitus is one of the most frequent co-morbidities of ulcerative colitis and their epidemiological association suggests genetic sharing and stimulates studies for gene identification. Diabetes also shares specific complications with ulcerative colitis and represents a challenging condition in ulcerative colitis patients for the treatment of the disease, due to difficult control of glucose levels and for high risk of postoperative complications and pouch failure. All these issues have been discussed in the present review.
