A Pediatric Case of Ketosis-Prone Type 2 Diabetes Requiring Insulin Therapy

In recent years, cases of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or ketosis as the initial manifestation of diabetes with a similar clinical course to that of type 2 diabetes have been reported. This phenotype has been recognized as ketosis-prone type 2 diabetes (KPD). Most cases of KPD occur in adults, and th...

description In recent years, cases of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or ketosis as the initial manifestation of diabetes with a similar clinical course to that of type 2 diabetes have been reported. This phenotype has been recognized as ketosis-prone type 2 diabetes (KPD). Most cases of KPD occur in adults, and the typical clinical course is that patients are often able to wean off insulin therapy after initial treatment. We report a pediatric case of ketosis-prone type 2 diabetes requiring insulin therapy with four years of follow-up. Our case suggests that patients with KPD may require strict management, including weight control, compared with patients with typical type 2 diabetes.
