Abstract |
Islet cell adenoma is a rare cause of severe neonatal hypoglycemia. A newborn infant with severe
symptomatic hypoglycemia had persistent hypoglycemia in spite of therapy with parenteral glucose
solution.
Islet-cell adenoma of mixed islet-acinar type was found when subtotal pancreatectomy was
performed at 42 days of age. Following surgery she had a transient hyperglycemia and required isulin
for 40 days. She has remained normoglycemic but is subsequently mentally retarded. |
