The aim of this chapter is to summarize the clinical presentation and the diagnosis of insulinomas, to address the controversies in the preoperative and intraoperative tumor localization modalities, to discuss the role of the laparoscopic approach for tumor excision, and to update regarding new treatment modalities for patients with inoperable metastatic disease.
