S1Ep5 - Glucagonoma

I recently came across glucagonoma, a disease which I’d never heard about before. In this post, we will explore more about this rare disease, including symptoms and treatments.


❓What is Glucagonoma?

Less than 1 person in very 10 million develop this tumour. Essentially, it is a tumour that causes an excess release of glucagon from the pancreas. The tumour is a type of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour (the tumour develops into endocrine cells in the pancreas, these tumours can spread across the body).

Glucagonoma can start in the tail of the pancreas, most of the time, the cancer can metastasise and the most common areas for it to spread to include lymph nodes, the liver and bones.
