Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is a disorder in which the insulin cells of the pancreas (beta cells) secrete too much insulin and at the wrong time. Excess insulin causes low blood sugar. Ordinarily, beta cells secrete just enough insulin to keep the blood sugar normal. With HI, the secretion of insulin is not properly regulated, causing excess insulin secretion and low blood sugar.
