Abstract
Permanent neonatal diabetes may occur either in isolation or associated with multi-organ syndromes. It is caused by mutations in the genes responsible for pancreatic β cell mass or function. We report new cases of consanguineous parents from Saudi Arabia with a homozygous deletion of exons 1and 2, and exon 5-9 of the GLIS3 gene, who presented with permanent neonatal diabetes associated with intrauterine growth retardation, severe congenital hypothyroidism without other manifestation in the liver, renal or eyes in the 1st one and cystic renal changes in the 2nd patient. Mutations in the GLI-similar 3 (GLIS3) gene encoding the transcription factor GLIS3 are a rare cause of neonatal diabetes and congenital hypothyroidism with only 15 reported patients worldwide to date.
