Inclusion criteria

Patients with suspicion for an insulinoma fulfilling all of the following inclusion criteria are eligible for the study:

Inclusion Criteria:

Informed Consent as documented by signature
Biochemically proven endogenous hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia: neuroglycopenic symptoms in the fasting state with low plasma glucose, inappropriately high serum insulin and C-peptide concentrations (standardized 72h fasting test).).

Participants as control subjects fulfilling all of the following inclusion criteria are eligible for the study:

Inclusion Criteria:

Informed Consent as documented by signature (Appendix Informed Consent Form)
Possession of the adequate match criteria (age, BMI and gender) to patients with suspicion for an insulinoma

Exclusion criteria

Known hypersensitivity or allergy to Exenatide
Pregnant or breastfeeding female patients. A pregnancy test will be performed in all women of child bearing potential.
Calculated creatinine clearance below 40 ml/min
No signed informed consent
Intake of any glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 analogue (such as Byetta® or Bydureon®[= Exenatide])
prediabetes or diabetes (HbA1c > 5.7 %)
Previous abdominal surgery in the gastrointestinal tract
Any concomitant glucose-lowering drug (i. e. insulin, sulfonyl urea)
Any known intolerance to standardized meal (Maizena)
Any uncontrolled significant medical, psychiatric or surgical condition (active infection, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, poorly controlled hypertension, uncontrolled congestive heart disease, etc.) or laboratory findings that might jeopardize the patient's safety or that would limit compliance with the objectives and assessments of the study.
Any mental conditions which prevent the patient from understanding the type, extent and possible consequences of the study and/or an uncooperative attitude from the patient
