Background: Insulinoma is a rare, insulin-secreting pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, most commonly benign, solitary, sporadic, well differentiated and with a slight female predominance. The investigation of hypoglycemia requires a fasting test to exclude, among other causes, factitious hypoglycemia. Clinical Case: A 27-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency room after seizure by hypoglycemic crisis (capillary blood glucose < 55 mg/dL). She had recurrent episodes of adrenergic/neuroglycopenic symptoms since the age of 14, occurring during fasting, mainly in the morning, with improvement after eating. After confirming Whipple's triad, a fasting test showed hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (glycemia 53 mg/dL, normal value >55 mg/dL; insulin 11.5 mcU/mL, nv
