Lesson of the month: Recurrent falls and hypoglycaemia in an older woman.

Alvin Sq Ong1, Lin Wang1, Junjie Aw2.   

Abstract

We present a case of a non-diabetic 84-year-old woman who presented with recurrent falls and hypoglycaemic episodes and was subsequently diagnosed to have a solitary insulinoma. Her multiple fall episodes may have been precipitated by her low blood glucose levels. We discuss the clinical and radiological findings of insulinoma. © Royal College of Physicians 2022.
