Abstract
Latent autoimmune diabetes of adulthood (LADA) is often a challenging diagnosis as the age of onset and the initial period of insulin-independence point towards type II diabetes (T2DM).

Herein we describe the case of a middle-aged female with sudden onset diabetes who was diagnosed with LADA.
