Objective: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and celiac disease (CD) are two distinct medical conditions that can affect bone health. While PHPT leads to excessive calcium levels and bone abnormalities, CD impairs calcium and vitamin D absorption due to small intestine damage.
Case Report: We present a case of a 49-year-old woman diagnosed with osteoporosis who was found to have both PHPT and CD. The patient underwent a successful minimally invasive parathyroidectomy, which resulted in decreased parathyroid hormone levels.
Conclusion: This case highlights the rare coexistence of PHPT and CD and emphasizes the importance of considering secondary causes of osteoporosis in patients with low bone mass. Further studies are needed to explore the underlying mechanisms and potential links between PHPT and CD.

Chronic inflammation is a common trait in the pathogenesis of several diseases of the gut, including inflammatory bowel disease and celiac disease. Control of the inflammatory response is crucial in these pathologies to avoid tissue destruction and loss of intestinal function. Over the last 50 years, the identification of the mechanisms and mediators involved in the acute phase of the inflammatory response, which is characterized by massive leukocyte recruitment, has led to a number of therapeutic options.

Background: Childhood autoimmune disorders involve the immune system attacking its own tissues, leading to varied symptoms, while autoinflammatory disorders result from innate immune system dysregulation, both requiring extensive diagnosis and multidisciplinary management due to their complexity.
Case Presentation: We present a unique clinical case of a teenager with a combination of autoimmune and autoinflammatory disorders. The initial manifestation of hip pain, coupled with progressive symptoms over several years and findings in multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, culminated in the diagnosis of chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO).

We report the management of a convexity dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) in an uncommon anterior superior sagittal sinus (SSS) location. This was a high-risk Cognard IIa+b dAVF, which is notoriously complex to treat. Endoscopic management alone for complex SSS dAVFs is challenging due to the often bilateral arterial supply to the fistula, as demonstrated in this case.

Background Type I diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a prevalent chronic illness that typically manifests in childhood. In patients who are genetically predisposed to diabetes, complex interactions between environmental and genetic factors play a role in the development of type 1 diabetes. There is proof that the onset of type 1 diabetes raises the possibility of developing additional autoimmune conditions.

Objectives: We evaluated the effect of a gluten-free diet (GFD) on HbA1c levels in patients with both type 1 diabetes and CD.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, biochemical and clinical information was gathered from 174 children with T1DM from January 2013 to January 2019.
