ABSTRACT
Distinguishing type 1 from type 2 diabetes is sometimes a challenge, since presentations
may be atypical or overlapped, for instance, patients with type 1 diabetes may
have pathophysiological elements of type 2 diabetes. MODY (maturity onset diabetes
of the young) or more recently called monogenic diabetes, are rare forms of diabetes,
caused by monogenic defects. The most common mutations are in HNF4A (hepatocyte
nuclear factor 4 alfa), HNF1A (hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alfa) and GCK (glucokinase).
The correct diagnosis is essential because there are different treatment options
for each mutation, some respond favourably to sulphonylureas, while other types of
monogenic diabetes rarely warrant pharmacologic treatment. In this revision, we will
mention the characteristics and pathology of monogenic diabetes and which patients
will benefit from further genetic testing in order to reach a correct diagnosis. According
to different series, between 50% and 80% of patients with monogenic diabetes are
not diagnosed correctly.
