Hyperinsulinism results from inappropriate insulin secretion during hypoglycaemia. Down syndrome is causally linked to a number of endocrine disorders including Type 1 diabetes and neonatal diabetes.

SUR1-mutant iPS cell-derived islets recapitulate the pathophysiology of congenital hyperinsulinism
Congenital hyperinsulinism caused by mutations in the KATP-channel-encoding genes (KATPHI) is a potentially life-threatening disorder of the pancreatic beta cells. No optimal medical treatment is available for patients with diazoxide-unresponsive diffuse

Background In neonates, rhesus D alloimmunization despite anti-D immunoglobulin prophylaxis is rare and often unexplained. Rhesus D alloimmunization can lead to hemolytic disease of the newborn with anemia and unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.

Hyperinsulinism in a Neonate [PDF]
A male patient was born small for gestational age (SGA) at 33 weeks with a birth weight of 1,663 grams (< 10th percentile) and length 43 cm (10th percentile) to a 38-year-old G5P4 mother by cesarean section due to non-reassuring fetal heart tones. Prior to delivery, his mother experienced decreased fetal movement and decelerations.

Background Persistent hypoglycemia is common in the newborn and is associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcome. Adequate monitoring is critical in prevention, but is dependent on frequent, often hourly blood sampling.

Laparoscopic Surgery for Focal-Form Congenital Hyperinsulinism Located in Pancreatic Head
Background and AimsCongenital hyperinsulinism of infancy (CHI) is a rare condition that may cause irreversible severe neurological damage in infants. For children in whom medical management fails, partial or near-total pancreatectomy is then required ...

Hyperinsulinism-hyperammonaemia syndrome: novel mutations in the GLUD1 gene and genotype-phenotype correlations [PDF]
Background: Activating mutations in the GLUD1 gene (which encodes for the intra-mitochondrial enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase, GDH) cause the hyperinsulinism–hyperammonaemia (HI/HA) syndrome.

Diazoxide-responsive hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia caused by HNF4A gene mutations [PDF]
Objective: The phenotype associated with heterozygous HNF4A gene mutations has recently been extended to include diazoxide responsive neonatal hypoglycemia in addition to maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

Hyperinsulinism is the most common cause of hypoglycemia in infants. In many cases conservative treatment is not effective and surgical intervention is required. Differentiation between diffuse and focal forms and localization of focal lesions are the most important issues in preoperative management.
