Introduction: The neonatal threshold for hypoglycaemia is debatable and makes its treatment challenging. Neonatal hypoglycaemia can be transient and yet pose a significant risk of neuroglycopaenia, especially with severe and recurrent hypoglycaemia in Congenital Hyperinsulinism. Untreated hypoglycaemia induced cerebral injury can be identified by magnetic resonance (MR) brain scan changes affecting cerebral white matter, occipital lobes and posterior parietote...
