Abstract
Pancreatic tumors harboring glucagon immunoreactive cells were found in four patients with diabetes mellitus. Alpha-cell (glucagon) granules were present in three tumors; pancreatic polypeptide (PP) immunoreactive cells were detected in two. In two patients the tumors were malignant and one of these had the glucagonoma syndrome; the other was a member of a family with MEN-type I syndrome. These cases illustrate three clinical subtypes of glucagonoma.Entities:
