GCK‐MODY in pregnancy: A pregnant woman with diabetes and a small‐for‐gestational‐age fetus

Abstract

Abstract Glucokinase‐maturity‐onset diabetes of the young (GCK‐MODY) is often misdiagnosed as other forms of diabetes. A 42‐year‐old pregnant lady with pre‐existing diabetes was treated with insulin during first trimester. Fetal growth restriction was noted since mid‐second trimester. Genetic testing suggested the diagnosis of GCK‐MODY.
