We report a case of celiac crisis in a previously healthy 51-year-old female presenting with a month’s history of diarrhea, cachexia and an abnormal metabolic panel.The patient’s diarrhea resolved after initiation of a gluten free diet and she gained 4 kilograms during hospitalization. Celiac crisis is a very rare presentation of celiac disease in adults but nonetheless should be considered in patients with marked metabolic derangements in the setting of osmotic diarrhea.

A patient with multiple tarsal coalitions presenting with symptoms at the age of 47 years is reported. The report highlights the presentation of symptomatic coalitions following trauma in adulthood. Coalitions can pose difficulties in diagnosis, particularly without previous history of pain or disability in childhood. A decrease or loss of subtalar movement, painful movement, and valgus deformity of the hindfoot are usually present in the adult patient but are not often pathognomonic and present a diagnostic conundrum, particularly with x-rays being misinterpreted. This report highlights the problem of diagnosing such a condition with the attendant difficulties in formulating treatment.
