Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) describes a group of non-autoimmune forms of diabetes that are characterized by mostly autosomal dominant, monogenic mutations resulting in decreased beta cell function in the pancreas. MODY accounts for roughly 1% to 5% of diabetes cases, and the optimal treatment for each MODY depends on the causative mutation. This article provides a review of MODY to aid providers with knowing what aspects of the history and physical exam should prompt further investigation for this group of conditions.
