Two infants with persistent, symptomatic hypoglycemia are reported. Both were thought to have iatrogenic hyperinsulinism due to a malpositioned umbilical artery catheter. Repositioning of the catheter to avoid direct infusion into the arterial blood supply to the pancreas resulted in prompt cessation of hypoglycemia.
