Subject: Great Website on Insulinoma with Pictures

To those of you with weaker stomachs, don't look. I love at least one
of you dearly and this one would give her nightmares. For the rest of
you, this site walks you through the removal of an islet cell tumor,
with great color photographs. Also shows a slightly enlarged but
perfectly healthy liver (common in ferrets) as compared to a very
stressed liver. Islet cell tumors on the pancreas are what cause
insulinoma, a condition which causes hypoglycemia and eventually
death if left untreated. Anyway, here is the link that someone at the
longbeach animal hospital in CA put alot of thought and work into.

You'll want to bookmark this one.
