Ankylosing spondylitis patients may experience recurrent hypoglycemia and sensorimotor neuropathy. This case highlights autoimmune hypoglycemia with vasculopathy and spontaneous recovery, offering insights into rare neurological complications.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Immunology
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease.
  • Recurrent hypoglycemia can present with diverse neurological symptoms.
  • Autoimmune hypoglycemia is often associated with specific autoantibodies.

Observation:

  • A 53-year-old male with ankylosing spondylitis experienced recurrent hypoglycemia.
  • He developed symmetrical distal sensorimotor neuropathy.
  • Nerve biopsy revealed axonal neuropathy with secondary demyelination and vasculopathy.

Findings:

  • Low serum C-peptide levels suggested endogenous hyperinsulinism.
  • The clinical presentation was consistent with autoimmune hypoglycemia.
  • Evidence of vasculopathy indicated a potential mechanism for neuropathy.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering autoimmune hypoglycemia in patients with inflammatory conditions and neurological deficits.
  • Early diagnosis and management of autoimmune hypoglycemia can prevent severe complications.
  • Further research into the link between autoimmune disorders and hypoglycemia-associated neuropathy is warranted.
