Primary insulinoma of the liver
#3187
Introduction: Insulinoma is a moderately rare neuroendocrine tumor which is normally located in the pancreas. There are extremely rare cases of metastatic insulinoma. We present the case of the primary insulinoma of the liver which was successfully surgical treated.
Aim(s): To show the first case of primary insulinoma of the liver.
Materials and methods: A 63-year-old female was admitted to our department, presenting symptoms of severe hypoglycemia due to confirmed endogenic hyperinsulinism. None of the performed diagnostic procedures (CT, MRI, PET) revealed a pancreatic tumor. A pathologic mass in the 6th segment of the liver was detected.
