Individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome manifest severe skin picking behavior. We report three patients with this syndrome in whom an extension of this behavior to rectal picking resulted in significant lower gastrointestinal bleeding and anorectal disease. The recognition of this behavior is important to avoid misdiagnosing inflammatory bowel disease in this group of patients.

The incidence of tuberculosis (TB) is rising worldwide, despite the efficacy of the BCG vaccination. Populations at greatest risk of contracting TB are migrant communities, as well as immunocompromised individuals. The diagnosis of extrapulmonary TB (EPTB) can often present as a diagnostic conundrum, due to its nonspecific and varied presentation, often mimicking inflammatory bowel disease or malignancy. We present a case of caecal TB in pregnancy, which resulted in caecal perforation, a right hemicolectomy, and severe preterm delivery. The aim of this case report is to discuss the diagnosis of extrapulmonary TB, as well as its subsequent management in pregnancy.
