#2249 Pasireotide as a Possible Tool for the Control of Refractory Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia from Malignant Insulinoma

Introduction: The control of hypoglycemic hyperinsulinemic syndrome from malignant insulinoma is challenging because it is often refractory to diazoxide and somatostatin analogues (SA). Everolimus can have side effects that can limit its use. Pasireotide, a multi-receptor-targeted SA with a high binding affinity to SSTR1 and SSTR5, exhibits a strong inhibitory effect of insulin secretion.

#2223 Diagnostic Dilemma in a Patient with Recurrent Hypoglycaemia: An Unusual Case

Introduction: Recurrent hypoglycemia is a part of Whipple’s triad and usually points towards insulinoma as a cause. Presence of metastasis is uncommon in Insulinoma, and other causes should be ruled out.

#2124 A Case Report of a Malignant Insulinoma

Introduction: Despite rare (1-2% of pancreatic tumors/PT), insulinomas are the most common functional pNET. The diagnosis is established by demonstrating inappropriately high serum insulin levels during a spontaneous or induced episode of hypoglycemia.
