Abstract. A 37 year old male with a strong family history of autoimmune disease presented with typical symptoms of hyperthyroidism. He had exophthalmos but no goitre. Hyperthyroidism was confirmed by failure of 131I neck uptake to suppress after 7 days treatment with triiodothyronine. Six years previously a diagnosis of primary hypothyroidism has been made. At diagnosis of hyperthyroidism, thyroglobulin antibodies, thyroidal microsomal antibodies and thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins were detected. The absence of thyroid growth stimulating immunoglobulins and presence of immunoglobulins blockink TSH-induced growth may account for the absence of goitre throughout. HLA -B8, -B, -DR3 and -DR4 genotypes, low C4 complement cocentrations and islet cell autoantibodies were detected at the time of diagnosis and 1 year later diabetes mellitus developed.

A 24 years old female, was admitted with symptoms of urinary tract infection. She was married and had bad obstetric history. She was known diabetic for 16 years of age and was on regular treatment with injection human insulin mixtard since the time of diagnosis, but had no episode of diabetic ketosis/ ketoacidosis. She had a positive family history of diabetes. She was further evaluated and was found to have normal C peptide levels and islet cell antibodies were found to be negative. Hence, the possibility of MODY (monogenic diabetes) was considered. Her genetic testing could not be done due to financial constraints. But a trial of sulfonylureas was given along with reduction in the dose of insulin to which she responded well and is presently well controlled.
