Type 2 diabetes identified in pregnancy secondary to Cushing's syndrome

Introduction The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the UK is rising, particularly in younger age-groups (Wilmot et al. 2010). Changing lifestyles, with increased carbohydrate consumption coupled with reduced levels of exercise, with their resultant obesity, are thought to underlie this population change. Not uncommonly, however, T2DM is the result of an underlying endocrinopathy such as Cushing ’ s syndrome, rather than lifestyle (Catargi et al. 2003), a diagnosis that is easily overlooked in the wake of the obesity epidemic.
