Such teaching, naturally, places the pancreas in the center of interest. A clinically and pathologically proved type of such "pancreatic" type of diabetes is the one which follows an acute pancreatic necrosis with destruction of the islets and secondary cyst formation. One of us, with Mackenzie,1has followed up such cases with determinations of sugar tolerance. The diabetes in these patients is usually mild and, because of the marked regenerative power of the pancreas, the sugar tolerance...Bibliography1.
