Background: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) occurs more frequently in children; however, in recent years, cases of children with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) are increasing, which worries us because complications occur earlier than in adults. Microalbuminuria is the main indicator of renal damage and it is useful to observe the progression of chronic kidney disease. Objective: To determine the frequency of microalbuminuria in patients aged 5 to 18 years with DM1 and DM2 who received medical care at the Instituto Nacional de Salud del Niño de Breña and Hospital Cayetano Heredia during the period 2018 - 2020. Methods and Materials: Observational, descriptive and retrospective study. We reviewed 130 medical records and of these 86 were included. For data analysis, the statistical program STATA v16 was used. Results: The frequency of microalbuminuria was 25.58% (n=22), 20 patients with DM1 and 2 with DM2. The distribution of the patients with DM1 by sex was 65% (n=13), median age was 12 years, duration of the disease was 4 years and dyslipidemia was the most associated comorbidity. In the patients with DM2, 100% (n=2) of the patients were female, median age was 12,5 years, duration of disease was 11 months, and obesity was present in all the patients. Conclusions: The frequency of microalbuminuria was 25.58%, most of them belonging to the female sex and with DM1.
