A 17-year-old boy admitted with a right foot drop of sudden onset was diagnosed with peroneal nerve palsy. He had had osmotic polyuria, polydipsia and weight loss for the past 2 months; his blood glucose was 25 mmol/L (<7.8), HbA1c 15.2% (4.0-5.6) and vitamin B-12 125 pg/ml (180-914). The peroneal nerve palsy resolved within 3 months with blood glucose regulation and B-12 supplementation. Diabetes should be borne in mind in the differential diagnosis of unusual cases of mononeuropathy.en10.1080/20469047.2022.2059879info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMononeuropathyType 1 DiabetesAdolescentsNeuropathyAdolescentsMechanismsChildrenA 17-year-old boy who presented with acute mononeuropathy was found to have Type 1 diabetesArticle422105107Q3WOS:0007792455000012-s2.0-8512914393735389821Q2
