Schuller-Christiania Gigon A. ("Schweizer. Med. W." No. 1. 1932)
Gigon A. describes the case of the so-called. Schuller-Christiania diseases ("Schweizer. Med. W." No. 1. 1932). This disease usually occurs in young people; especially striking clinical symptoms of pituitary origin: diabetes insipidus or dystrophia adiposo-genitalis, further acromegalic forms, exophthalmos. Sugar diabetes in this disease has not yet been described. Very often the b-s have a general xanthomatosis. Further characteristic of this disease are defects in the bones, mainly in the flat bones and, above all, in the skull, as well as in the bones of the rest of the skeleton. These defects are caused by an interlayer of a peculiarly yellow tissue rich in cholesterol and lipoid. Hypercholesterolemia is found in the blood. In the literature, this disease is referred to the group of so-called general lipoidosis.
