The case of a 24 year-old Comorian male patient consuming large amounts of cooked and uncooked cassava and suffering of malnutrition since his boyhood is reported. The patient presented a diabetes mellitus by chronic calcific pancreatitis with retinopathy and neuropathy. The protein deficiency associated with eating uncooked cassava may be recognised as a factor of calcific pancreatitis diabetes. Other factors might be associated such as the environment as well as immunological and genetic characteristics. |
