Walcott-Rallison syndrome has been identified as the most common cause of permanent neonatal diabetes in consanguineous families caused by mutations in eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-α kinase 3 (EIF2AK3), characterized by permanent neonatal diabetes associated with liver dysfunction, multiple epiphyseal dysplasia, and developmental delay. We herein report 3 cases of genetically proven Wolcott-Rallison syndrome with variable phenotype presentation.
