摘要
Insulinoma is the most common functional neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas [2]. In most cases the lesions are benign, solitary, and located within the pancreatic parenchyma. Because of these characteristics, the majority of these lesions can be treated with simple enucleation [2]. Advances in laparoscopic techniques have recently enabled the safe resection of pancreatic islet cell tumors [1] and may provide patients with the benefits of minimally invasive surgery.
