In the last five years, our knowledge about the heterogenous syndrome of congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) has expanded explosively. HI may be familiar or sporadic, mild or severe, transitory or persistent, and histologically focal or diffuse. At least 63 disease-causing mutations have been found in the genes for the beta cell's ATP-dependent potassium ...

Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a rare cause of hypoglycemia caused by dysregulated and excessive production of insulin in neonates and infants. CHI is associated with significant morbidity and is responsible for brain injury in many patients.

This clinical review will give doctors who work with children and neonates an introduction to the diagnosis and treatment of congenital hyperinsulinism, the most common cause of persistent neonatal hypoglycaemia. The condition is a rare monogenic disorder characterised by elevated insulin secretion and is a result of mutations in genes that regulate ...

Background We recently reported non-coding variants in a cis-regulatory element of the beta-cell disallowed gene hexokinase 1 (HK1) as a novel cause of congenital hyperinsulinism.

Focal hyperinsulinism (HI) comprises nearly 50% of all surgically treated HI cases and is cured if the focal lesion can be completely resected. Pre-operative localization of the lesion is thus critical.

For the past 70 years, controversy about hypoglycemia in newborn infants has focused on a numerical “definition of neonatal hypoglycemia”, without regard to its mechanism.

Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH) is fairly common in neonates, particularly those born to diabetic mothers and those who are either large or small for gestational age. Immediate management of the disease focuses on achieving normoglycemia through frequent high-calorie feedings and/or intravenous glucose administration.
