Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical and genetic characteristics of congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI).Method From November 2016 to November 2018,a cohort of 21 patients with CHI were retrospectively reviewed in our hospital.The second generation sequencing was performed on Ion torrent platform to identify the genetic etiology of this disease.Result The average birth weight was 3 748 g.Overall,11 of the 21 patients (52.4％) were large for gestational age (＞ Pg0),and 90.5％ (19/21) onset within 3 days after birth.Seizures occurred in 7 cases (33.3％).Diazine was effective in alleviation in 6 patients,octreotide was effective in 8 patients,and diazine and octreotide were ineffective in 7 patients.11 patients underwent 18-fluoro-l-dopa PET-CT scan,indicating focal islet cell proliferation in 8 patients and diffuse islet cell proliferation in 3 patients.8 focal cases accepted the partial pancreatectomy (7 cases who failed to respond to drug therapy,1 case who received octreotide had significant liver damage),and all of these 8 cases were confirmed with focal islet cell proliferation by postoperative pathology.7 cases had normal glucose level after surgery,while 1 case developed insulin-dependent diabetes.Patients of 3 cases with diffuse islet cell proliferation had no consent for surgery.Gene mutations were identified in 61.9％ (13/21) of patients (12 cases of ABCC8 gene and 1 case of KCNJ11 gene).15 sequence changes were identified (14 in ABCC8 and 1 in KCNJ11).3 new ABCC8 gene mutations (exon13:c.1822C ＞ T,p.Q608X;exon22:c.2691delC,p.W898Gfs*5;exon33:c.4039C ＞T,p.Q1347X),and 1 new KCNJJ11 gene mutation (exon1:c.629T ＞ A,p.H315Y) were firstly reported.Conclusion Partial pancreatectomy is an effective treatment for those CHI not responsive to drug,however,with an attendant risk of developing diabetes.Mutations of ABCC8 gene and KCNJJ11 gene are the main pathogenic genes of CHI.Patients with different gene mutations may have different responses to drug treatment.Therefore,it is necessary to improve gene testing in clinical practice to guide treatment and prognosis.3 new ABCC8 gene mutations and 1 new KCNJJ11 gene mutation were first reported,which expand the spectra of gene mutation.
