Glucagonoma syndrome: survival 24 years following diagnosis.

Abstract:

:The symptoms of necrolytic migratory erythema, diabetes, stomatitis, weight loss and diarrhoea represent the glucagonoma syndrome which has been recognized since the early 1970s. Because of its rarity (1 case/20-200 million population) late diagnosis is frequent which leads to a poor prognosis. The case described, originally reported in 1974, is the longest survivor to be documented in the literature, and is one of the original patients with a glucagonoma that helped to define the syndrome.
