Results: Fifty two cases (50.9%) were studied and treated for Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia out of 102 with prolong hypoglycemia. Male gender, Pregnancy induced hypertension, maternal diabetes and Small for gestational age were common risk factors associated with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (p<0.05).
