Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis, Recurrent Genital Abscess, and Proximal Renal Tubular Acidosis With Concurrent SGLT-2 Inhibitor: More Than an Association.

Sodium-glucose transport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of antidiabetic medications that have tremendous benefits in diabetic patients through reducing renal tubular glucose reabsorption, therefore inducing a rapid increase in urinary glucose excretion, thus reducing the overall serum blood glucose. However, the medication's use has commonly been associated with emerging complications such as euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (eDKA), a rare and life-threatening metabolic disturbance. Other complications that have been associated with this class of medications are recurrent genital abscesses and renal tubular acidosis, which have both been less reported and explored.

A Case Report of an Unusually Large Heterotopic Pancreas.

Heterotopic pancreas (HP) is the presence of pancreatic tissue outside of its normal anatomical position without vascular continuity from the main pancreas. HP is most commonly found within the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the stomach through the jejunum. This report shares the case of a 57-year-old man who presented with persistent vomiting despite medical therapy.
