Despite T2DM is considered a nosological entity of adults, it has increased in children under 19 years old. This is due to changes in lifestyles but above all to the increase of overweight and obesity registered in recent years. There are multiple studies focused on describing both the epidemiology and the clinical presentation of T2DM in children and adolescents. In Mexico, there is little research that provides data on the behavior and distribution of this disease in the Mexican population. However, given the characteristics of the population, it is very likely to find more cases than those that are currently reported. That is why this article aims at making a brief analysis of the main risk factors associated with diabetes, epidemiology, physiopathology, clinical presentation as well as diagnosis and treatment in T2DM in adolescents.
