Sumario:MODY is a heterogeneous group of diseases that stem from certain genetic mutations and are characterized by beta-cell dysfunction, early clinical onset (before the age of 25) and autosomal dominant inheritance. Nowadays many studies address atypical variants of diabetes mellitus (DM) and consequential problems in differential diagnosis. Though generally patients with MODY have normal body weight, the ongoing spread of obesity will probably produce comorbid forms and thus alter clinical picture. We present a case of DM in a 13-year-old patient that characterizes development of MODY3 in type 2 DM-like phenotype.
