    Abstract:
    Results of palliative operations in three patients with diabetes mellitus were analyzed. Operations were directed to a decrease of activity of counterinsular hormones--glucagon, glucocorticosteroids, catecholamines. In one patient with a coexistent chronic hepatitis a positive effect was obtained after left-side renoportal venous anastomosis with ligation of splenic vessels. The ligation of splenic vessels and unilateral adrenalectomy were performed in 2 patients with I and II type diabetes mellitus associated with arterial hypertension. A hypoglycemic and hypotensive result was obtained.
