A case of insulinoma diagnosed postpartum with hypoglycemic symptoms that were masked during pregnancy

Abstract

Abstract The diagnosis of insulinoma in perinatal women can be difficult, as hypoglycemic symptoms may be masked by pregnancy‐associated insulin resistance. In addition, when multiple insulinomas are observed, it is necessary to consider the possibility not only of MEN1, but also of insulinomatosis.
