Case report: Exceptional transmission of congenital hyperinsulinism from a focal CHI mother to her diffuse CHI dichorionic diamniotic twins.

We present the case of a 36-year-old female who was diagnosed at birth with CHI that caused severe hypoglycaemia unresponsive to Diazoxide. Subtotal pancreatectomy was performed at the age of three weeks. Later, histological analysis of her pancreas in a research setting revealed a focal form of CHI.
