We report on 2 newborns with adrenal cysts who were treated successfully with an operation. One patient had been well after birth with no adrenal insufficiency. However, 2 large and 2 small cysts were found, all of which were attached to the adrenal gland without a clear vascular stalk. The other patient had adrenal cortical insufficiency. His mother had had gestational diabetes and hypertension during pregnancy. The adrenal cyst was partially resected. Both patients were in good condition 5 years postoperatively.

tinctive marks of androgen insensivity and gonadal dysaenesis.Clinica1 features of both conditions were found in thepre-W e studied BP patterns and the Renin-Angiotensin-Al dosterone axis (RAA) of 9 7 IDDM children (3-15 yrs old) in relation to the auxological data,the metabolic control and duration of diabetes (1-13 yrs).We analysed a total of 712 BP measurements. RESULTS. Mean systolicBP levels for age groups were at the 50th percentile of the general population,while the mean diastolic B P w e r e at the 75th in both sexes.Systolic and diastolic BP levels were directly and significantly related to age, weight,height,Quetelet index,duration of disease and HbA1.
