Core Tip |
Although most occurrence of type 1 diabetes is sporadic, that is, first-degree relatives do not have diabetes at the time patient is diagnosed, however it could also be familial. Type 1 diabetes among siblings is a rare occurrence and more extremely rare is for three or more siblings to develop type 1 diabetes. Hence due to the possibility of this familial occurrence, screening for diabetes among siblings should be encouraged. This report describe a case of a Nigerian family in which type 1 diabetes occurred in three siblings among four children with neither of parents having diabetes. |
