[Complete resolution of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in a patient with autoimmune pancreatitis following treatment with corticosteroids]. / Disparition totale d'un diabète insulinorequérant au décours d'une pancréatite auto-immune traitée par corticothérapie.

We report here the observation of a 60-year-old man who had an autoimmune pancreatitis revealed by a jaundice, in whom an insulin-treated diabetes mellitus, which was diagnosed one month before, completely resolved after the administration of prednisolone given to treat this symptomatic pancreatitis. Neither the symptoms, nor the diabetes have relapsed after a 3-year follow-up.
