Pancreatogenic diabetes is a form of secondary diabetes that occurs when pancreatic inflammation, neoplasia, or resection leads to beta-cell dysfunction, affecting the secretion of insulin causing Types 3c Diabetes. Type 3c diabetes is almost twice as frequent as type 1 diabetes but is misdiagnosed as type 2 diabetes in over 87% of patients.

Causes: 1.Chronic pancreatitis is the most frequent disease of the exocrine pancreas linked with the development of diabetes 2.Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) 3.Lacking genes in the E2F group 4.Finally, other less frequent forms of pancreatogenic diabetes are present, such as that due to pancreatic cancer, and post-pancreatectomy diabetes Symptoms: These symptoms are typical of diabetes: Frequent thirst even after drinking lots of water Passing more frequent urine during day and night Weight loss Most patients with T3cDM have a known history of: Pancreatitis with abdominal pain, Steatorrhea or Mal-digestion Nutritional deficiencies and Glucose intolerance. Patients may also manifest with symptoms of: Mal-digestion and Abdominal pain Diagnosis: The diagnosis of T3cDM requires 1.The evidence…
