Fanconi- Bickel Syndrome (FBS) is a rare glycogen storage disease (GSD) . Transient diabetes is rarely reported with FBS. We describe a patient with FBS diagnosed by diabetes findings and identification of a mutation in the GLUT2. A male infant, from a consanguineous marriage, presented with hyperglycemia and urinary system infections at 59 days and was given insulin therapy. At age 3 months, insulin was discontinued. Neonatal diabetes may be a first presentation of infants with FBS. [Med-Science 2017; 6(1.000): 111-3]
