ABSTRACT
A new case of alcoholic ketoacidosis (AKA) is presented because of unusual clinical and biochemical features. Although it shares some similarities with typical cases of AKA, it appears as unique because of predominantly neurological, rather than abdominal symptoms, major ketogenesis with normal ketone body ratio, the presence of large amounts of propanediol and the absence of an osmolar gap.
