Formation of large abscess tumor including gallstone in ileum during therapy for hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome: a case report.

ABSTRACT: Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic status (HHS) is one of the most serious acute metabolic complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) and the patients with type 2 DM are immunocompromised host, especially when glycemic control is poor. Under hyperglycemic conditions, we have to pay much attention even for rare infection. Bouveret's syndrome is a rare type of gallstone ileus together with duodenal obstruction secondary to the passage of a stone through a cholecystoduodenal fistula. Herein, we reported a rare case with formation of large abscess tumor, including necrotic ileum and gallstone after taking therapy for HHS. She was under more rare conditions rather than Bouveret's syndrome, because large abscess tumor was formed not in the duodenal bulb but in the ileum together with necrotic ileitis and abdominal abscess with impacted gallstone. We should bear in mind that T2DM patients are immunocompromised host in particular under untreated or poorly controlled conditions and thereby they could have rare inflammatory diseases such as a large abscess tumor.

Project description:Introduction: Glycemic management in the intensive care unit is an evolving practice area. This evolution has included the refinement of blood glucose targets, matching glycemic management to premorbid status, and investigations into the impact of glycemic variability and relative hypoglycemia on ICU outcomes. The interplay between these phenomena and absolute hypoglycemia has yet to be investigated in hyperglycemic emergencies. Objectives: To examine the incidence of and risk factors for relative hypoglycemia and absolute hypoglycemia in patients admitted to an intensive care unit for the management of hyperglycemic emergencies. Methods: This was a retrospective, single-center, exploratory analysis of adults admitted to the medical intensive care unit for diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome. The primary outcome was the incidence of relative hypoglycemia, defined as a blood glucose level 30% lower than baseline. The baseline was determined by the estimated average blood glucose calculated from hemoglobin A1c within 3 months of index admission. Secondary outcomes were ICU length of stay, glycemic variability, and incidence of absolute hypoglycemia.Results: Relative hypoglycemia was observed in 60% of patients in the cohort. Longer insulin infusion duration and higher hemoglobin A1c levels were found to statistically increase the risk of developing relative hypoglycemia. Higher glycemic variability and longer ICU length of stay were associated with the risk of developing absolute hypoglycemia. Conclusions: Relative hypoglycemia is a frequent occurrence in this patient population. Hemoglobin A1c and duration of the insulin infusion statistically influenced the risk of developing relative hypoglycemia. Higher glycemic variability and longer ICU stay were significantly associated with developing absolute hypoglycemia. While relative hypoglycemia is common in hyperglycemic emergencies, the clinical impact remains uncertain and warrants additional investigation.
