Glucagonoma syndrome with increased lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes: octreotide treatment.

Glucagonoma Syndrome is a rare syndrome comprising hyperglucagonemia, diabetes mellitus, necrolytic migratory erythema and hypoaminoacidemia in the setting of a glucagon producing, alpha cell tumour of the pancreas. We report a case of Glucagonoma Syndrome palliatively treated successfully with octreotide. In addition to classical clinical and biochemical findings, this patient also had a Glomus Jugulare tumour, and Empty Sella Syndrome and demonstrated an unusual pattern of plasma lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes, features not previously reported in this syndrome.

A case of glomerular lipidosis accompanied by familial combined hyperlipidemia and panhypopituitarism.

This is a report of a case of glomerular lipidosis with familial combined hyperlipidemia and panhypopituitarism. A 60-yr-old woman was admitted for evaluation of hyponatremia. Administration of hydrocortisone normalized the level of serum Na. A pituitary hormone-stimulating test and brain computed tomography revealed panhypopituitarism with an empty sella. Glucocorticoid deficiency due to secondary hypoaldosteronism was thought to have caused the Na loss. She had been treated for thyroid dysfunction and hyperlipidemia with replacement of thyroid hormone and a lipid-lowering drug. Hyperlipidemia changed from type V into IIa in 4 yr. Furthermore, one of her brothers and one of her sons were suspected to have type IV hyperlipidemia. Familial combined hyperlipidemia accompanied by secondary hypothyroidism was thought to have increased the levels of both total cholesterol and triglyceride. Two renal biopsies in 3 yr showed lipid deposits in the mesangial cells and indicated a positive correlation between the levels of serum lipids and lipid deposits in glomeruli, which suggested an important role of abnormal lipid metabolism in the progression of glomerular lipidosis.

Empty sella syndrome associated with partial hypopituitarism (visualized on MRI scan).

The empty sella syndrome has become a rather frequent finding in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning. The usual presentation of empty sella syndrome involves an incidental finding on a computed tomography scan or an MRI scan. It is unusual to find empty sella syndrome associated with hypopituitarism. The authors describe such an unusual finding in a 54-year-old nulliparous woman.
