Abstract
We report the case of a transient hypoglycemia secondary to idiopathic intermittent hyperinsulinism in a two-day-old newborn. The diagnosis was evoked on clinical data, intermittent hyperinsulinemia, endocrine screening and magnetic resonance imaging MRI brain and pancreatic normal. Neonatal hyperinsulinism intermittent transient idiopathic is a rare cause of neonatal hypoglycemia. Inappropriate secretion of insulin is responsible for unexplained severe hypoglycemia. An early treatment reduces the risk of neurological long-term sequelae.
