    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Endocrinology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Insulinoma, a rare pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, can cause hypoglycemia.
    • Hypoglycemia-induced neurological symptoms are often complex and varied.
    • Understanding these neuropsychic disturbances is crucial for timely diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of insulinoma with significant neuropsychic disturbances are presented.
    • Epileptiform syndromes, dysphoric episodes, and lethargy were commonly observed.
    • A rare case of coma vigil in advanced insulinoma is detailed.

    Findings:

    • The study highlights the polymorphic nature of insulinoma-related neurological symptoms.
    • Pathogenetic mechanisms involve severe hypoglycemia affecting brain function.
    • Differential diagnosis is challenging due to the wide spectrum of presentations.

    Implications:

    • Early recognition of neuropsychic symptoms is vital for diagnosing insulinoma.
    • This emphasizes the need for a multidisciplinary approach in managing complex cases.
    • Further research into the neurobiological impact of insulinoma is warranted.
