The continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) have recently been developed for use in diabetes to provide comprehensive blood glucose data around the clock during normal activities. We have demonstrated for the first time that CGMS can assist in the management of 2 patients with confirmed insulinomas. We present 2 female patients (aged 41 and 35 years) with symptoms suggestive of hypoglycaemia. Both had biochemical evidence of insulinoma with hypoglycaemia, hyperinsulinaemia...
