[Retinopathy and angiopathy in diabetes of fifty to sixty years duration (author's transl)].
A report is given on ten (seven female, three male) diabetis with uncommonly long duration of the disease. Diabetes had become manifest at an early age (mostly childhood) and, then, had continued for a period of fifty to sixty-one years. Eight patients suffer from retinopathy, two are free from it. Only three cases show nephropathy of moderate development and inconspicuous progression. Coronary sclerosis, peripheral sclerosis, and neuropathy recede with time. There is a surprising discrepancy of findings concerning retinopathy - on the one hand: simple retinopathy tending to spontaneous regression; on the other hand: malignant proliferating retinopathy. Uncommon also is the tarrying behaviour of nephropathy.
