Overview
The hallmark of VIPoma is watery diarrhea. A positive history of abdominal pain, weight loss, numbness, and weakness is suggestive of VIPoma
History and Symptoms
The hallmark of VIPoma is watery diarrhea. A positive history of abdominal pain, weight loss, numbness, and weakness is suggestive of VIPoma.[1][2][3][4]
History
Patients with VIPoma may have a positive history of:
Common Symptoms

- Watery diarrhea like cholera
- Volume ranges from 750ml to more than 3 liters.
- Secretory diarrhea persists even on fasting for 48 hours and is odorless.
- The stool appears like dilute tea in color, is blood and mucus free.[5]
- Dehydration (thirst, dry skin, dry mouth, tiredness, headaches, and dizziness)
- Lethargy
