ABSTRACT
Transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (TNDM) is a genetically heterogeneous form of neonatal diabetes characterized by hyperglycemia that remits during infancy with a tendency to recur in later life. This case report presents the history of a male infant with transient neonatal diabetes mellitus. The patient was treated with a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) and a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system until the age of 2 months, when the normoglycemia connected with a withdrawal of treatment was noted. The genetic test results excluded the majority of known mutations related to TNDM. This case report focuses on various genetic mutations and the clinical features connected with them that cause TNDM and highlights the difficulties in the diagnostic and therapeutic processes of this disease. CSII and CGM systems seem to be a safe and effective treatment option in TNDM and may be used in the therapy.
