Swift diagnosis and institution of appropriate management is crucial to prevent or minimise adverse neurodevel-opmental outcome in children with CHI. Histologically there are two major subtypes of CHI, diffuse and focal disease and the management approach will significantly differ depending on the type of the lesion. Patients with medically unresponsive diffuse disease require a near total pancreatectomy, which then leads on to the de-velopment of iatrogenic diabetes mellitus and pancre-atic exocrine insufficiency. However patients with focaldisease only require a limited pancreatectomy to re-move only the focal lesion thus providing complete cure to the patient. Hence the preoperative differentiation of the histological subtypes of CHI becomes paramount in the management of CHI. Fluorine-18L-3, 4-hydroxy-phenylalanine positron emission tomography(18F-DOPA-PET) is now the gold standard for pre-operative differentiation of focal from diffuse disease and locali-sation of the focal lesion. The aim of this review article is to give a clinical overview of CHI, then review the role of dopamine in β-cell physiology and finally discuss the role of 18F-DOPA-PET imaging in the management of CHI.展开更多
In this paper we study the variation of limit cycles around different foci when a coefficient in the equation of the quadratic differential system varies.
