Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease with many systemic manifestations and almost no specific symptoms. Report the case of a young woman with abdominal pain (colic type), bloating and up to 10 loose stools (day and night) associated with progressive weight loss that has been diagnosed with celiac disease in the gastroenterology and hepatology department. After full adherence to the gluten-free diet all biochemical abnormalities disappeared and the patient became normoponderal.

A 40-year-old female with an allergy to medium contrast, presented with bilateral loin pain and renal colic type radiation. Image study with non-contrast computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple nephrolithiasis and a complex cyst at lower pole of the right kidney and no findings in the left one. The patient was treated with laser lithotripsy by flexible ureterorenoscopy revealing multiple lithiasis within cystic dilatations of the urothelium. The complex cyst was submitted to partial nephrectomy. Finally, biopsy demonstrated that it was renal parenchyma with polycystic changes in the external corticomedullary area. All findings were compatible with unilateral medullary sponge kidney diagnosis.
