The aim of the study was to describe a clinical case of noninsulinoma pancreatogenous hypoglycemia (NIPH).Materials and methods. Patient R. 42 years old, woman, was admitted with complaints on spastic abdominal pain, heartburn, flatulence, bloating. The patient had a history of cramping pains in the upper abdomen, episodes of hypoglycemia up to once a day, periodically diarrhea with undigested food up to 3 times a day, and frequent weakness during last 9 years. In 2013, she was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas, and therefore distal pancreatectomy was performed that year. According to histological and immuno-histochemical studies, foci of islet-cell hyperplasia (nesidioblastosis) were noted in the tail of the pancreas against the background of tissue fibrosis. Non-insulinoma pancreatogenous hypoglycemia of adults (NIPH) was diagnosed, enzyme replacement therapy and Octreotide-depo were prescribed. Relapses were noted twice. Two weeks before admission, the patient noted episodes of hypoglycemia. Upon admission, the patient had state of moderate severity, irregular stools up to 3–4 times a day. Antibacterial treatment was carried out, enzyme replacement therapy, octreotide was continued.Results. On the 7th day of hospitalization, the patient was stabilized: the level of glycemia was 4.5–4.9 mmol / l, the frequency and consistency of stool normalized. No data for decompensation of the disease has been received. The patient was discharged in a satisfactory condition.Conclusion. This clinical case demonstrates the influence of NIPH on the patient’s quality of life and the need for constant vigilance against the recurrence of hypoglycemic episodes, despite the treatment. This case can improve the awareness about this rare but important disease.

Hypogammaglobulinemia is a condition caused by low levels of immunoglobulins in the blood serum. It can be a manifestation of primary immunodeficiency, characterized by a violation of the production of immunoglobulins, in particular common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). A typical clinical sign of CVID is various severe infections, among which infectious arthritis is not uncommon. At the same time, the clinical picture of infections can differ significantly from that in individuals with a normal immune response, including the spectrum of infectious arthritis pathogens.The article describes a clinical case of an unusual course of infectious arthritis in a patient with newly diagnosed hypogammaglobulinemia. The peculiar features of the case were a long (more than 1.5 years) course of the disease, without the development of septic complications, no increase in ESR and CRP, recurrence of arthritis after a 2-month course of antibiotic therapy, and the presence of generalized edema. The causes and diagnosis, features of infectious complications, including infectious arthritis, and probable causes of edematous syndrome in CVID are discussed.
