[Chronic norovirus infection in an immunocompromised patient].

A 68-year-old man, immunocompromised due to non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chemotherapy, was admitted for a community-acquired norovirus infection. He developed chronic intermittent diarrhoea and cachexia. A video-capsule examination showed severe mucosal atrophy in the jejunum.

Non-islet cell tumour-induced hypoglycaemia: a review of the literature including two new cases.

This review focuses on the tumour types and symptoms associated with non-islet cell tumour-induced hypoglycaemia (NICTH) as well as the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this rare paraneoplastic phenomenon. In addition, we report two illustrative cases of patients suffering from NICTH caused by a solid fibrous tumour and a haemangiopericytoma respectively. In the first case, NICTH resolved following complete resection of the tumour, but in the second case the patient needed long-term treatment aimed at controlling hypoglycaemia because of non-resectable metastases.
