Résumé :

A retrospective study has been done on records of 63 newborns, born of insulin dependent diabetic mothers between 1964 and 1974, when a team consisting of an obstetrician, a diabetologist and a paediatrician systematically controlled the maternal diabetes during pregnancy and also took care of the newborns. Perinatal mortality was 11.1%, foetal mortality was 7.9% and early neonatal mortality was 3.2%. The percentage of congenital malformations in our population of living newborns of insulin dependent diabetic mothers was 3.2%. Respiratory distress occurred in 17.4% of the children.
