When the blood glucose of a patient is high is it dangerous for doctors to perform surgery - on the leg for example?
That depends on how high. If it is somewhat high, 200-300 range then there is not much risk during the surgery. The anesthesiologist may need to give some additional fluid. If it is higher than that they often can control it with some insulin before the surgery or delay the surgery if possible (that may not always be best). The bigger risk is in the recovery. High sugars impede healing and predispose to infection.

What hormone is secreted when blood glucose is high?
Insulin is the hormone that is secreted when blood glucose levels are high. Insulin helps to lower blood glucose levels by signaling cells to take up glucose from the bloodstream for energy or storage.
What is the glucose sensor in B-cells Why?
glucokinase. glucokinase has a high km(low affinity for glucose) so glucokinase only phosphorylates glucose when blood glucose is high, such as after a meal. As such, it makes sense that this would be sensor for B-cells
