Four cases of sudden and unexpected death caused by the acute onset of diabetes mellitus are reported. Three are examples of acute juvenile diabetes while the fourth demonstrated the aketotic form of diabetic coma. Such instances can present a diagnostic problem to the forensic pathologist. The usefulness of vitreous humor glucose analysis to diagnose such a condition is stressed.
