==Introduction==
==Description==
   
Glucagonomas are very rare tumours of the alpha cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans that produce the hormone glucagon without appropriate regulation.  The excessive secretion of glucogon is a form of topic paraneoplastic syndrome.  The disease has been reported in approximately ten dogs and it is therefore extremely rare.
