Hypoglycemia Observed on Continuous Glucose Monitoring Associated With IGF-2-Producing Solitary Fibrous Tumor.

Context: Tumors producing IGF-2 (IGF-2oma) are a major cause of spontaneous hypoglycemia. The treatment mainstay is surgical resection. Many case reports note resolution of hypoglycemia after IGF-2oma resection; however, outcomes are variable according to tumor type. We report a case of resolving hypoglycemia, observed on continuous glucose monitoring, after resection of an IGF-2-producing solitary fibrous tumor of pleura and review the current literature. Case Report: A 69-year-old woman presented with impaired consciousness because of hypoglycemia. An IGF-2oma was diagnosed as the cause for hypoglycemia because of decreased serum insulin and IGF-1, the presence of a pleural tumor, and a high-molecular-weight form of serum IGF-2 detected by Western immunoblot. Surgical resection was performed; pathological examination demonstrated a solitary fibrous tumor with low-grade malignancy. Continuous glucose monitoring showed reversal of hypoglycemia after tumor resection. Approximately 2 years after resection, ...
