Autosomal dominant hyperinsulinism due to SUR1 deficiency

Definition

A form of congenital diazoxide-sensitive diffuse hyperinsulinism due to ABCC8 variants and characterized by hypoglycemic episodes that are usually mild, escaping detection during infancy, and usually have a good clinical response to diazoxide. The autosomal dominant hyperinsulinism usually has a milder phenotype when compared to that resulting from recessive potassium (K-ATP) channel mutations.
