Recurrent hypoglycemia is common, but its presentation is often insidious resulting in delays in diagnosis and significant morbidity. We describe a case of an insulinoma presenting with falls and confusion in a patient with tuberous sclerosis, demonstrating the importance of early hypoglycemia identification and a potential shared molecular pathogenesis.
复发性低血糖很常见,但其表现往往隐匿,导致诊断延迟和严重的发病率。我们描述了一例患有结节性硬化症的患者,其胰岛素瘤表现为跌倒和意识模糊,证明了早期识别低血糖的重要性以及潜在的共同分子发病机制。
