Abstract

Twenty-three segmental pancreatic transplants have been performed for treatment of diabetes mellitus between July 1978 and March 1981 at the University of Minnesota. The radiologic evaluation of the transplants included ultrasonography,15Se-methionine isotope scanning, angiography, and CT scanning. Transplants of normal appearance by these studies had normal endocrine function. Pathologic findings are presented and their significance discussed.
