摘要
The combination of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), cerebral edema, and leukemoid reaction in pediatrics has never been reported before in the literature. It may lead to significant morbidity and high mortality. Here, we report a case of DKA-induced cerebral edema associated with severe leukocytosis (WBC 98 x 10(9)/L), which had many challenges in fluid therapy.
