We were most interested to read of Plotkin and Kaye's two children with congenital rubella and diabetes mellitus. Since our original report of five cases referred to by those writers, we have found three further patients under 30 years of age with this combination of disorders.1 Each of these three patients had no evidence of diabetes mellitus on routine clinical examination and urinalysis in 1967. However, when reviewed this year all three patients had glucose tolerance tests indicative of diabetes.
