Abstract:
Follow up studies in 19 diabetic patients with manifestation in the youth. Proteinurie within few years; later on nephropathy: 7 cases with glomerulosclerosis, 8 with arteriolosclerosis, 3 with pyelonephritis and 1 with chronic glomerulonephritis. In all cases retinopathy, very often coronarsclerosis, seldom peripheral and cerebral sclerosis. 14 patients died, mostly in young age in consequence of nephropathy. Proteinurie is a malignant symptom of diabetic angiopathy; in contrast to the retinopathy.
