ABSTRACT
We report on two cases of type C insulin resistance syndrome(TCIRS) admitted to the Department of Endocrinology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2000 to December 2020. Both patients presented with persistent hyperglycemia, low immunoreactive insulin, extreme insulin resistance, high insulin autoantibodies, high total insulin, and large insulin antibody pool. TCIRS is marked by extreme insulin resistance with ketoacidosis and respond to medium to high doses glucocorticoids rather than plasmapheresis.
