BACKGROUND: Permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM) in European population has an incidence of at least 1 in 260 000 live births and is most commonly due to mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8. However, data on this condition in other populations are limited. OBJECTIVE: To define the incidence, genetic aetiology, and clinical phenotype of PNDM in Al-Madinah region, northwest Saudi Arabia. METHODS: Patients with PNDM diagnosed between 2001 and 2010 were identified and clinically phenotyped. Sequencing of KCNJ11, ABCC8, and INS were performed initially on all subjects, and EIF2AK3, GLIS3, SLC2A2, SLC19A2, GCK, IPF1, and NEUROD1 genes were sequenced according to the clinical phenotype. RESULTS: In total, 17 patients from 11 consanguineous families were diagnosed with PNDM and the incidence was 1 in 21 196 live births. Six different mutations in four genes were identified, of which two GLIS3 and one SLC2A2 were novel and no patient had KCNJ11, ABCC8, or INS mutations. Fourteen (82.4%) patients had identifiable genetic aetiology and their PNDM was part of known autosomal-recessive syndromes including Wolcott Rallison (41.1%), neonatal diabetes and hypothyroidism (29.4%), Fanconi-Bickel (5.8%), and thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anaemia (5.8%). Two patients with isolated PNDM and one with intermediate developmental delay, epilepsy and neonatal diabetes had no identifiable cause. CONCLUSIONS: Al-Madinah region has the highest reported incidence of PNDM worldwide. In this region with high consanguinity, PNDM has different genetic aetiology and in the majority of cases presents as a part of rare familial autosomal-recessive syndrome rather than in isolation.
