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 ...

ABSTRACT The management of hypoglycaemia is pivotal in the care of patients with insulinoma. Blood glucose monitoring and regulation needs careful attention pre‐ and peri‐operatively for patients undergoing surgical resection and as part of the long‐term management for patients with inoperable or metastatic disease.
