Cœliac disease is an autoimmune disorder associated with Gluten intolerance resulting in progressive destruction of the villi of the small intestine. Symptoms are very diverse and can occur at any age. Abortive illness is a rare symptom leading to the detection of cœliac disease. We report the case of a patient with a history of 12 consecutive miscarriages whose etiology was finally related to cœliac disease.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a self-limited, idiopathic, non-neoplastic disorder characterized by the proliferation of phagocytic histiocytes, which can mimic malignant lymphoproliferative disease. Cases of RDD most commonly present as bilateral painless cervical lymphadenopathy, with lesser involvement of the axilla, inguinal, and mediastinal lymph nodes. We present the case of a 62-year-old woman with a history of endometrial serous carcinoma who underwent evaluation at a dedicated breast imaging department after positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) revealed breast masses and axillary nodes with increased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).
