Surgical treatment is reserved for [[insulinoma]].
Surgical removal of the overactive part of the pancreas is curative with minimal risk when hyperinsulinism is focal or due to a benign insulin-producing tumor of the pancreas. When congenital hyperinsulinism is diffuse and refractory to medications, near-total pancreatectomy may be the treatment of last resort, but in this condition is less consistently effective and fraught with more complications.

Overview

Surgical treatment is reserved for insulinoma. Surgical removal of the insulinoma is the treatment of choice and resection of metastatic liver disease.

Surgery

Surgical treatment is reserved for the cases where the cause of hypoglycemia is insulinoma.

  • Surgical removal of the insulinoma is the treatment of choice:[1]
  • Recurrence is more common in the patients with MEN1.
  • Hepatic resection is indicated for the treatment of metastatic liver disease if the general condition is good. Resection should be considered only for patients with a limited number of hepatic metastases.[4]
