Core Tip	Monogenic diabetes forms a spectrum of single gene disorders, characterized by distinct patterns of inheritance, accounting for about 1%–2% of diabetes mellitus burden in the world. Although more than 50 unique genetic mutations associated with these disorders have been identified to date, the diagnosis and management of monogenic diabetes are still inadequate globally because of the poor awareness and professional inertia among physicians. Prompt suspicion and diagnostic evaluation of these disorders are of paramount importance from the management and genetic counselling perspectives. A clinical update review in the World Journal of Diabetes empowers physicians to have a better understanding about this disease.
