Information on Insulinoma

Posted on 5th | Posted by admin in Health

Insulinoma is one of the most common neuro-endocrine tumors of the pancreas.

Insulinoma involves the beta cells in the pancreas of the ferret that develop into tumor, and is unfortunately fairly common in ferrets aged 2-4 and up. It is this tumor(s) that causes the excess production of insulin. High insulin levels cause low blood sugar levels. They usually occur as single, small tumors in adults. They are very rare in children. Most children with hyperinsulinism have multiple areas of overactive insulin-secreting cells in the pancreas, rather than a single tumor. Most insulinomas are benign only 5 to 10 percent are cancerous.
