Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) comprises a group of metabolic diseases that have the presence of hyperglycemia as a common factor. In Spain, the prevalence estimates of DM type 2 (DM2) ranging between 4.8 and 18.7%, DM type 1 (DM1) between 0.08 and 0.2%; are a major health problem due to the associated comorbidity and high costs. The aim of the case study is to raise awareness of the importance of early and adequate diagnosis among health professionals in order to optimize treatment; in addition to proposing a differential diagnosis of importance for routine clinical practice.
