Abstract
Beyond the 2 classical forms of congenital hyperinsulinism, focal and diffuse, we report our experience on the surgical treatment of atypical forms. We define 2 subtypes among these atypical forms of hyperinsulinism: in case of a giant focal form the surgical strategy is the same as in focal forms. In case of hyperinsulinism caused by a mosaic, our experience suggests the benefit of a limited resection from the tail to the body of the pancreas. © 2011 Elsevier Inc.
