Unmet needs in current clinical practice for insulinoma: lessons from nationwide studies in Japan

Insulinoma is a rare pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (PanNEN) that causes hypoglycemia owing to endogenous insulin hypersecretion. Insulinoma is the most common functional PanNEN; it is also one of the most common causes of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia in adults without diabetes mellitus1-4.
