We present a rare case of noncardiogenic pulmonary edema (NCPE) associated with sudden coma due to severe hypoglycemia. We suggest that in every case of NCPE associated with coma, a rapid determination of glycemia should be provided because delays in diagnosis can lead to adverse outcome.
A case of cardiomegaly with unilateral pulmonary edema is presented. The predisposing etiologies were severe hypoglycemia and a hypertonic glucose infusion into a branch of the left lower lobe pulmonary vein. Resolution resulted following maintenance of adequate glucose levels, vigorous
BACKGROUND
Hypoglycemia-induced brain edema is a severe clinical event that often results in death. The mechanisms by which hypoglycemia induces brain edema are unclear.
METHODS
In a hypoglycemic injury model established in adult rats, brain edema was verified by measuring brain water content and
We report a very rare case of acute pulmonary edema caused by hypoglycemia from insulin overdose during an attempted suicide. A 16-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes was brought to our hospital because of hypoglycemic coma. She exhibited severe hypoxia; upon intubation, bloody froth poured out of
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of hypoglycemia-induced pulmonary edema and to analyze the underlying pathophysiologic processes.
METHODS
A case report with clinical and laboratory data is presented, and related studies from the medical literature are discussed.
RESULTS
A 23-year-old man with type 1
