Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Lactic acidosis not associated with hypoxic states has a high morbidity and mortality. Treatment of this condition has been supportive and the etiology poorly understood. We report a case of recurrent lactic acidosis in a patient with renal and hepatic insufficiency with hypoglycemia which was repeatedly reversed by restoring the glucose concentration to normal. This case and several others in the literature suggest a mechanism for the development of type II B hyperlactatemia and new approaches for therapy. |
