Type 3c diabetes

Type 3c diabetes (also known as pancreatogenic diabetes) is diabetes that comes secondary to pancreatic diseases,[1] involving the exocrine and digestive functions of the pancreas. It also occurs following surgical removal of the pancreas.

Around 5–10% of cases of diabetes in the Western world are related to pancreatic diseases. Chronic pancreatitis is most often the cause.[1][2]
