Recurrent Hypoglycemia Secondary to Insulinoma in an Adult With Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by genetic and epigenetic changes on the chromosome 11p15.5 region, which includes genes that are important for fetal and postnatal growth. Children with BWS have a higher chance of having hypoglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and malignancies early in life, although hypoglycemia caused by an insulinoma that develops later in life has not been reported. We describe the diagnosis of insulinoma in a 53-year-old man with BWS in this case report. This is the first case report of insulinoma in an adult with this syndrome.
