Comparison Between Sporadic and Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1–Associated Insulinoma

Abstract

MEN-1 patients present with insulinoma at younger age and have larger benign pancreatic lesions at the time of resection compared with sporadic neoplasms. Younger patients and those with multifocal pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor in the setting of endogenous hyperinsulinism should be evaluated for MEN-1.
