Alcoholic ketoacidosis in an 11-year-old boy.
Pediatric Emergency Care 2008 March

We present the case of an 11-year-old boy with acute ethanol intoxication and a clinical course that is most consistent with alcoholic ketoacidosis. Alcoholic ketoacidosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of children with unexplained ketoacidosis when there is history or evidence of ethanol consumption combined with the appropriate clinical presentation.
