title: [Hyperlipidaemia associated to inaugurated diabetic ketoacidosis].
abstract: Severe hyperlipidaemia in presenting diabetic ketoacidosis was rarely reported in child. We report the case of a three-year-old girl with presenting diabetic ketoacidosis. Family history was negative for hyperlipidaemia. Serum was creamy pink in gross appearance. The child has a hyperlipidaemia with serum triglycerides 18.5 mmol/l and serum cholesterol 13.8 mmol/l. The hyperlipidaemia disappeared with insulin therapy within seven days. We study the clinical, laboratory, pathogenic and evolution features of this uncommon trouble in diabetic children.
