The authors experienced a patient with insulinoma presented with neuropsychiatric symptoms. It was demonstrated that Whipple's triad is highly suggestive of the presence of an insulinoma. Therefore physicians and/or psychiatrists, who refer patients with insulinoma to third institution, always have a alertness to neuropsychiatric symptoms of insulinoma and Whipple's triad.

This case also illustrated the persistence and cooperation between psychiatric and medical teams including the involvement of a neurologist, endocrinologist, and surgeon for diagnosis and treatment planning of patient with insulinoma.
