About this study

Despite of the technique and technology developement there are still a lot of troubles to verify small benign-looking pancreatic NETs. It can be especially important in case of insulinoma. The organic hyperilsulinism and severe hypoglicemia causeb by the insulin/proinsulin - producing lesion can lead to severe complications and evem death.

There are some cases of the blinded resections of the pancreas in patients with the "hidden" insulinoma when the tumor can't be revealed during the preoperative diagnostics and intraoperatively. Unfortunately, blind resection do not solve the problem of the hypoglicemia but also cause the specific pancreatic complications.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

The blinded resection of the insulinoma

Exclusion criteria

Other tumors

Treatment and study plan

Pancreatic resection

Procedure

Different pancreatic resections

Primary outcomes

No hidden insulinomas

Time frame: 2010 June - 2020 June

To improve the diagnostics of the tumor before and during the surgery. The "hidden" insulinomas haven't been diagnosed. The frozen section have to be routinely performed. The surgery haven't been finished before the morphologic confirmation of the resected lesion.
