Hepatic artery aneurysms.

Four patients with hepatic artery aneurysm are reported. Two patients presented with abdominal pain, initially considered a consequence of pancreatic disease. A third patient had a sudden onset with hemoperitoneum and shock. In the fourth patient the aneurysm burst into the common bile duct causing hemobilia and jaundice. All were successfully treated with hepatic artery ligation, which left the patient free of symptoms during long-term follow-up. Arteriography should facilitate diagnosis and artery ligation appears the best treatment.

[The course of caries and frequency of dental restorations in low sugar diet].

The influence of a restricted low molecular carbohydrate diet was tested in 101 children and juveniles with diabetes mellitus. Due to the influence of this diet deep carious lesions develop more slowly. Children in whom the diabetes manifested itself at an early age had a lower index of filling and a higher index of defect. The degree of dental care was altogether alarmingly low.

[Age of onset of diabetes mellitus in relation to caries].

The DMF-Index of 101 children was established, regression analyses were made. It was found: -- that the D3-4MF/S was notably diminished in relation to patients with diabetes lasting a maximum of three years -- that the DMF/S of separately examined children was not reduced in spite of the diet. This may be interpreted as a sign of poor collaboration of the patient during therapy.

[The incidence of caries in juvenile diabetics (author's transl)].

The present state of knowledge regarding the aetiology of caries implicates the interrelationship between low-molecular carbohydrates and the bacterial flora as an essential factor in the potential development of caries. Persons with hereditary fructose intolerance and patients with diabetes mellitus are of special interest in studying these interrelations. The DMF/S index was calculated and a regression analysis carried out in 101 diabetic children and juveniles aged 4 to 18. The incidence of dentine caries was significantly lower in children with onset of diabetes preceding the appearance of the second dentition than in children with manifest diabetes of up to 3 years' duration. The DMF/S index was high in individual patients in spite of the prescribed dietary treatment.

[DMF/S study of children with different duration of diabetes (author's transl)].

The objective of this study was to determine the DMF/S indices of 101 children, make regression analyses, and compare the regression coefficients of subjects, in whom diabetes mellitus became manifest before the beginning of secondary dentition, with the regession coefficients of patients with a duration of diabetes as long as three years. It has been found that in the case of manifestation of diabetes before the commencement of secondary dentition the D3-4 MF/S index was significantly lower compared to subjects with a duration of diabetes up to a maximum of three years and the DMF/S index of individual subjects was anything but low despite a specific diet.--From our present knowledge of the pathogenesis of caries it is possible to conclude that a high incidence of caries in the case of early manifestation of diabetes is due primarily to a lack of therapeutic cooperation of the patient.
