The motivation of this article is to diagnose local insulin related dystrophies and their dynamic with an ultrasound (US) subcutis (SC) map, by comparison with clinical data. To improve insulin injection technique by identifying the real cutis/subcutis thickness (CST).We have enrolled 53 type 1 diabetic children (33 boys and 20 girls, aged between 2 and 15 years), with diabetes duration between 1 and 13 years. The clinical examination puts into evidence three types of local dystrophies: hypertrophy, nodular lumps and atrophy. The US technique has confirmed clinical findings and moreover has diagnosed their location, size, depth and echostructure. While mapping dystrophies we simultaneously have taken into consideration the CST of the nearest non-injured areas in order to be compared. The screening was also made again after a 6 months period.The US interrogation revealed a larger diversity of dystrophic phenomenon than the clinic one: SC diffuse hypertrophy, dominant nodular aspects, atrophies, associated muscular dystrophy or multiple layer dystrophies. After a 6 months period of not injecting, the clinical examination diagnosed the remission of some hypertrophies and nodular aspects. Also as a confirmation, the US technique identified more residual images and certified which types of echostructures had recovered or not.Local insulin dystrophy would be diagnosed, typified and mapped effectively by US unlike clinical severity. Reinjecting would be safer done after the US re-examination has certified the level of recovery. Being a comparative term as well as a condition for improving the injection technique the mapping of normal CST might be also part of a continuous specific education of insulin treated patients.
