Immune checkpoint inhibitors commonly cause gastrointestinal immune-related adverse effects. These patients also carry an increased risk of concomitant infections. This 66-year-old man with immune checkpoint inhibitor colitis was discovered to have concurrent and colitis. Such infections may mimic or complicate disease course.
