title: Type II vitamin D-dependent rickets with diabetic ketoacidosis.
abstract: The high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in relation to diabetes mellitus is well reported in the literature. However, type I diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in association with resistant rickets is extremely rare and reported in only one previous case. The authors describe here a case of type II vitamin D-dependent rickets (VDDR type II) in a 10-year-old Indian girl who presented with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). DKA as a presenting manifestation of T1DM in a patient with VDDR type II has never been reported before in worldwide literature.
