Insulinomas are rare insulin-producing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours. Most insulinomas are non-metastatic and can be cured by surgery, but in 10% of the patients insulinomas metastasize, which is associated with a significantly impaired overall survival. As the metastatic potential of an insulinoma cannot be reliably predicted with the current biomarkers, we aimed to evaluate the expression of somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors (GLP-1Rs) i...
