Functioning Islet-Cell Adenoma of the Pancreas
Archives of Surgery, 1960Langerhans in 1869 first described the pancreatic islets. Fifty-five years later came the monumental discovery of insulin by Banting and Best. Three years later, in 1927, Wilder and his associates 6 reported the first case of hyperinsulinism associated with an islet-cell adenoma.

Islet cell adenomatosis and adenoma in an infant
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1971A newborn infant developed severe symptomatic hypoglycemia which persisted despite combined treatment with parenteral 15 and 20 per cent glucose solutions, prednisone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, a leucine-free formula, and diazoxide. Adenomatosis of the islet cells and isolated adenomas of the pancreas were found when subtotal pancreatectomy was ...

Neonatal Islet Cell Adenoma: A Distinct Type of Islet Cell Tumor?
Diabetes Care, 1982An encapsulated, compact-type islet cell adenoma of the pancreas, found in a newborn infant with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, was investigated by conventional histology and immunofluorescence. Although the histologic structure of the tumor was indistinguishable from that of most islet cell tumors of adults, immunofluorescence revealed that the four ...

Islet cell adenoma with hyperinsulinism
The American Journal of Surgery, 1952Abstract A brief review of the incidence, pathology, symptomatology and treatment of islet cell tumors is presented. The frequency of islet cell tumors is closely related to an awareness of the possible existence of such lesions in patients suffering from symptoms of hypoglycemia. Recognition of the Whipple triad serves as the key in diagnosis.

A.M.A. Archives of Surgery, 1950
SINCE Roscoe Graham 1 first successfully diagnosed and extirpated an islet cell adenoma of the pancreas in 1929, this entity of hyperinsulinism due to adenoma has been well recognized and successfully treated. McClure and Brush 2 report that approximately 140 patients have been successfully operated on for this condition, but there appear in the ...

I. Introduction Spontaneous hyperinsulinism due to islet-cell tumors, while not a common condition, is one of which the medical profession is becoming increasingly aware, due to its dramatic symptomatology and the complete cure that may be effected by operative removal.

An Electron Microscope Study of Islet Cell Adenomas
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1963THE ULTRASTRUCTURAL characteristics of the islet cells of the pancreas are sufficiently different to permit identification of cell types without recourse to the selective staining methods required for light microscopy.1-3Such tinctorial methods often fail to indicate the cell type present in pancreatic tumors.

The effect of diazoxide in children with islet cell adenomas
Clinical Biochemistry, 19731. Three children diagnosed preoperatively as having islet cell adenoma of the pancreas were studied. Only one of them exhibited hyperinsulinism during a provocative test. In the remaining two patients the diagnosis was made on the basis of an inappropriately high insulin/glucose ratio during hypoglycemia (relative hyperinsulinemia).

Islet cell adenoma presenting as a psychiatric problem
The Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1958The British literature on spontaneous hyperinsulinism due to islet cell neoplasms is reviewed with reference to the psychiatric presentation of the disease. Two further cases of islet cell adenoma which were diagnosed in a psychiatric hospital are described. Of the total 39 patients, 7 were diagnosed in a psychiatric hospital, 1 of them at post mortem.

Functioning Pancreatic Islet Cell Adenoma
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1963Cochrane, Payne, Simpkiss, and Wolff first described in 1956 1 a type of hypoglycemia in infants which was precipitated or aggravated by feedings containing L-leucine. Approximately 60 children with this familial disorder have been reported. 2 Weisenfeld and Goldner recently reviewed the incidence ofL-leucine sensitivity in adults.
