Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) was observed in a 12-year-old female child recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. A rise in triglyceride (TG) levels accompanied this. High TG levels were suspected due to the lipemic appearance of the serum. Acute pancreatitis and lipemia retinalis are potential complications for hypertriglyceridemia patients. Treating the DKA and insulin deficiency reverted the TG levels to normal without using lipid-lowering agents.
一名最近被诊断为1型糖尿病的12岁女童出现了糖尿病酮症酸中毒(DKA)。同时伴有甘油三酯(TG)水平升高。由于血清呈现脂血外观,怀疑TG水平升高。急性胰腺炎和视网膜脂血症是高甘油三酯血症患者的潜在并发症。在未使用降脂药物的情况下,治疗DKA和胰岛素缺乏使TG水平恢复正常。
