title: A case of insulinoma following total gastrectomy--effects of an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor on suppressing GIP and GLP-1 elevations.
abstract: A 61-year-old woman with fasting hypoglycemia following total gastrectomy was diagnosed as insulinoma. GIP and GLP-1 levels after a mixed meal were extremely increased. Administration of miglitol, an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, suppressed the GIP and GLP-1 elevations.
