Context: Surgical intervention is advised in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type-1 (MEN-1) with non-functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNET) and a size ≥20 mm. However, functioning PanNET such as patients with endogenous hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (EHH) due to (one or multiple) insulinomas should be treated surgically independent of size. Reliable preoperative localization of insulinomas is critical for surgical strategy.<p class="abstext"...
