insulinoma (C0021670) | |
|---|---|
| Definition (MSH) | A benign tumor of the PANCREATIC BETA CELLS. Insulinoma secretes excess INSULIN resulting in HYPOGLYCEMIA. |
| Definition (NCI) | A usually benign, well circumscribed neoplasm arising from the beta cells of the pancreas. Patients exhibit symptoms related to hypoglycemia due to inappropriate secretion of insulin. |
| Concepts | Neoplastic Process (T191) |
| MSH | D007340 |
