ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the trend of hospitalization rates and mortality due to Diabetes Mellitus in children and adolescents in Brazil. Method: temporal series study, hospitalization rates and diabetes mortality in children and adolescents. Data were obtained from the Hospital Information System and Mortality Information System, from 2005-2015, with analysis performed by polynomial regression modeling. Results: 87,100 hospitalizations and 1,120 deaths from diabetes were analyzed. Hospitalizations rates increased for both genders and all age groups, with an increase for adolescents aged 10-14 years. The mortality rate declined, except for the 15-19-year age group. In the overall mortality trend in Brazil, the South and Southeast showed a decrease, whereas for hospitalizations only the Center-West remained constant, while the others increased. Conclusion: however, there was a decrease in infant mortality and increase in hospitalizations.
