Novel therapeutic minimally invasive procedures are successful in treating selected cases of insulinoma. Microwave ablation could be recommended preferentially over selective trans-arterial embolization, and radiofrequency ablation in treating insulinoma due to its efficacy and minimal complications. We report the first case of microwave ablation performed in combination with alcohol ablation in successfully treating insulinoma to our knowledge.
