Abstract

The syndrome of alcoholic ketoacidosis has not been reported in Britain, whereas in the United States it has been estimated to occur once for every four cases of diabetic ketoacidosis.1 We describe two patients with alcoholic ketoacidosis who presented to this unit within one month and discuss the pathogenesis and features of the condition. © 1986, British Medical Journal Publishing Group.
