Importance of Selective Arterial Calcium Stimulation with Hepatic Venous Sampling in Management of a Patient with Multifocal Insulinoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Insulinoma is a rare neuroendocrine tumour arising from beta cells of pancreatic islets Langerhans. We report case insulinoma presented with vague manifestations, which were undiagnosed for 2 years. The diagnostic evaluation revealed endogenous hyperinsulinism and imaging showed head lesion she underwent the surgery. Due to persisting symptoms, Calcium arterial stimulation hepatic venous sampling was later performed it localized an occult that not visible during radiological or surgical assessment. Diagnosis insulinomas remains clinical challenge. Selective calcium reliable pre-operative procedure positive diagnosis insulinoma.

متن کاملArterial Calcium Stimulation with Hepatic Venous Sampling in the Localization Diagnosis of Endogenous Hyperinsulinism
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess the utility of arterial calcium stimulation with hepatic venous sampling (ASVS) in the localization of tumors in patients with endogenous hyperinsulinism not detected with other methods. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective study of 26 patients admitted to our hospital for hypoglycemia who underwent ASVS because the sou...
