Reactive hypoglycaemia due to late dumping syndrome: successful treatment with acarbose.

Reactive hypoglycaemia is a rare disease which occurs postprandially in everyday life involving blood glucose levels below 2.5 to 2.8 mmol/l. We report on a 66-year-old patient who developed symptomatic reactive hypoglycaemia due to late dumping syndrome 10 years after oesophagectomy with cervical anastomosis. A 75 g sucrose load revealed a plasma glucose level of 9.4 mmol/l after one hour, fol...

Successful treatment of reactive hypoglycemia secondary to late dumping syndrome using miglitol.

We herein describe a 59-year-old woman who had undergone a total gastrectomy for gastric carcinoma and suffered from postprandial hypoglycemia characterized by a loss of consciousness and spasms.

She was subsequently treated successfully ...

Incretin Kinetics Before and After Miglitol in Japanese Patients With Late Dumping Syndrome

BACKGROUND In patients with late dumping syndrome following gastrectomy, it has been reported that hypoglycemia occurs due to inhibition of glucagon secretion as a result of excessive insulin production facilitated by an increase in glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). METHODS To determine the kinetics of incretins in Japanese patients with late dumping syndrome, an oral glucose tolerance test wa...
