MONTES-ARCON, Pablo Salomón; HERRERA-LOMONACO, Sandra; BLANCO-PERTUZ, Paola María  e  PEREZ-MINGAN, Gloria Caterine. Recurrent hypoglycemia secondary to pancreatic insulinoma. Cir. gen [online]. 2023, vol.45, n.1, pp.38-42.  Epub 30-Set-2023. ISSN 1405-0099.  https://doi.org/10.35366/110701.

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are rare neoplasms with variable behavior, which may or may not function according to their ability to produce hormones and therefore generate various symptoms in affected patients; an accurate diagnosis will determine a comprehensive management, which seeks to improve the quality of life of the patient, with emphasis on a complete resection to avoid the presence of residual disease. We present the case of a patient with recurrent hypoglycemic syndrome and imaging studies that showed a tumor lesion in the body of the pancreas; which is surgically intervened with total resection of the lesion, obtaining as a result in the pathological study the diagnosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (insulinoma).

Palavras-chave : pancreas; insulinoma; neuroendocrine pancreatic tumor; diagnosis; management.
