[Children of diabetic mothers].
In the past years several aspects of the diabetogenic fetopathia (e.g. macrosomia, hypoglycemia, cardiomyopathy) have changed. Strict metabolic control of pregnant women approaching normoglycemia and normal fetal insulinemia was followed by a decline in perinatal mortality and morbidity. However, the incidence of congenital malformations (6-8%) remained unchanged. Only normoglycemia before conception and within the first weeks of gestation will reduce this high incidence.
