Core Tip |
Paraneoplastic Non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia can occur as an initial presentation in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and is often difficult to correct. It is tend to be underdiagnosed because patients often developed tolerance to chronic fasting hypoglycemia secondary to advanced liver cirrhosis. A ratio of insulin-like growth factor-2/insulin-like growth factor-1 above 10 is often found if non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia is induced by overproduction of incompletely processed insulin-like growth factor-2. Oral corticosteroids and frequent high carbohydrate meals are often recommended but the outcome is unfavorable in general if tumor removal is not possible. |
