[Alcoholic ketoacidosis].
Alcoholic ketoacidosis is an acute metabolic disorder that occurs in ethanol abusers who because of gastritis or other concurrent illness stop eating and drinking and vomit repeatedly. This causes dehydration and ketoacidosis with little or no hyperglycaemia and glucosuria. A case of severe alcoholic ketoacidosis is presented and the literature on alcoholic ketoacidosis is reviewed.
