A 71-year-old woman being treated with methotrexate (MTX) and tacrolimus (TAC) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was admitted to our hospital and underwent surgery for gastric perforation and peritonitis. An endoscopic examination six days post-surgery showed an extensive ulcer in the stomach, and a biopsy revealed diffused large B-cell lymphoma. We diagnosed her with immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) and discontinued the MTX and TAC. She underwent gastrectomy due to stenosis approximately two months after the first operation, but the histopathological findings of lymphoma had disappeared. LPD should be considered as a potential cause of gastric perforation during RA treatment.

The postoperative increase in glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is the main factor to improve glucose metabolism following sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in obese patients with type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether the β-cell responsiveness to an injection of exogenous GLP-1 in the preoperative period could determine the postoperative glucose tolerance in 18 patients underwent SG. In the preoperative period, a regular oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and an exenatide-challenge during OGTT (Ex-OGTT) were performed to evaluate the β-cell function and its responsiveness to GLP-1. The postoperative glucose tolerance was evaluated by another regular OGTT performed at 3 months after SG. The significant decrease in glucose levels with enhanced secretions of insulin and GLP-1 was observed in OGTT at 3 months after SG. The area under the curve of glucose from 0 to 120 minutes (AUC glucose0–120 min) and the insulinogenic index (I.I.) in OGTT at 3 months post-SG were significantly improved compared to those in preoperative period, but comparable with those in Ex-OGTT. AUC glucose0–120 min and I.I. in OGTT at 3 months post-SG were significantly correlated with not only those in Ex-OGTT, but also those in the preoperative regular OGTT. Conversely, the correlations calculated by the Spearman’s ρ were stronger in the latter than the former. This exenatide-challenge protocol might be useful to estimate glucose tolerance and insulin secretion after SG, however, it may be insufficient to improve predictability of a patient who is likely to achieve a significant benefit on glucose metabolism from receiving SG.
