pubmed:abstractText |
The classification of diabetes mellitus by types (1 or 2), or by age of onset (juvenile or adult), helps to clarify many aspects of pathophysiology, prognosis, and therapy. However, less-commonly encountered patients, presenting in childhood or adolescence, may not fit neatly into one or the other group. These include teenagers who present with new-onset diabetes with ketoacidosis, but who are later able to be managed permanently as type 2 patients. Other adolescent patients present with only minimal glucose intolerance, then proceed to develop type 1 diabetes, with evidence of autoimmune etiology, after a variable number of years. Four patients are presented to illustrate these diagnostic dilemmas.
