Neonatal Hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Hypoglycemia as a result of hyperinsulinism in the newborn (HI) is a clinically heterogeneous entity that presents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to the treating physician. Recent discoveries have shown that mutations in four different beta-cell genes cause HI.

Transient hyperinsulinism in neonates
Congenital hyperinsulinusm is rare disease characterized high secretion of insulin by pancreatic beta cells leading to the development of hypoglycemia. Persistent and transient forms of hyperinsulinism are distinguished. Transient hyperinsulinism are the most common cause of severe hypoglycemia in newborns.
