In adult patients with endogenous hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and negative or inconclusive noninvasive imaging, insulinoma and non-insulinoma pancreatogenous hypoglycemic syndrome (NIPHS) resulting from diffuse nesidioblastosis must be considered in the differential diagnosis. It is not known whether the biochemical results of selective arterial calcium stimulation (SACST) with hepatic venous sampling can differentiate insulinoma from diffuse nesidioblastosis.
