Gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the excluded stomach after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: A case report and literature review.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Gastric cancer is an extremely rare condition to occur after bariatric surgery, and most of the reported cases are adenocarcinomas. Regarding gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), there are only two reported cases occurring after bariatric surgery (one after gastric banding and the other following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB)). CASE PRESENTATION:A 48-year-old woman with previous history of obesity and type 2 diabetes, treated with a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass 2 years earlier, was referred to our center due to complains of diffuse abdominal pain and distension associated with asthenia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a cystic-solid mass located in the right hypochondrium, measuring 19.5 × 13.5 × 16 cm, suggesting the diagnosis of a retroperitoneal tumor. Based on these findings, a laparotomy, evidencing that the larger cystic-solid tumor was originating from the excluded stomach post-RYGB. The gastrectomy of the excluded stomach was performed aside with a conventional cholecystectomy. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed to be a gastric GIST with epithelioid cells. Currently, 12 months after surgery, the patient presents no signs of recurrence. CONCLUSION:This is the second case of gastric GIST occurring after RYGB to be reported in the literature.

Project description:ObjectiveObesity leads to severe long-term complications and reduced life expectancy. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery induces excessive and continuous weight loss in (morbid) obesity, although it causes several abnormal anatomical and physiological conditions.Research design and methodsTo distinctively unveil effects of RYGB surgery on ?-cell function and glucose turnover in skeletal muscle, liver, and gut, nondiabetic, morbidly obese patients were studied before (pre-OP, five female/one male, BMI: 49 ± 3 kg/m(2), 43 ± 2 years of age) and 7 ± 1 months after (post-OP, BMI: 37 ± 3 kg/m(2)) RYGB surgery, compared with matching obese (CON(ob), five female/one male, BMI: 34 ± 1 kg/m(2), 48 ± 3 years of age) and lean controls (CON(lean), five female/one male, BMI: 22 ± 0 kg/m(2), 42 ± 2 years of age). Oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs), hyperinsulinemic-isoglycemic clamp tests, and mechanistic mathematical modeling allowed determination of whole-body insulin sensitivity (M/I), OGTT and clamp test ?-cell function, and gastrointestinal glucose absorption.ResultsPost-OP lost (P < 0.0001) 35 ± 3 kg body weight. M/I increased after RYGB, becoming comparable to CON(ob), but remaining markedly lower than CON(lean) (P < 0.05). M/I tightly correlated (? = -0.611, P < 0.0001) with fat mass. During OGTT, post-OP showed ?15% reduced plasma glucose from 120 to 180 min (?4.5 mmol/L), and 29-fold elevated active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) dynamic areas under the curve, which tightly correlated (r = 0.837, P < 0.001) with 84% increased ?-cell secretion. Insulinogenic index (0-30 min) in post-OP was ?29% greater (P < 0.04). At fasting, post-OP showed approximately halved insulin secretion (P < 0.05 vs. pre-OP). Insulin-stimulated insulin secretion in post-OP was 52% higher than before surgery, but 1-2 pmol/min(2) lower than in CON(ob)/CON(lean) (P < 0.05). Gastrointestinal glucose absorption was comparable in pre-OP and post-OP, but 9-26% lower from 40 to 90 min in post-OP than in CON(ob)/CON(lean) (P < 0.04).ConclusionsRYGB surgery leads to decreased plasma glucose concentrations in the third OGTT hour and exaggerated ?-cell function, for which increased GLP-1 release seems responsible, whereas gastrointestinal glucose absorption remains unchanged but lower than in matching controls.
