Özet

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) results from the destruction of pancreatic beta cells. Genetic and environmental factors are believed to be the major component for the development of the disease. Viruses have been suspected to contribute to the onset of T1DM. In this case report, a patient who had diabetic ketoacidosis with acute fulminant hepatitis following asymptomatic infection with parvovirus B19 virus (PB19) is presented. To our knowledge this is the first report of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute fulminan hepatitis due to PB19. We suggest close monitoring of the liver functions in DKA and taking care when the liver functions deteriorate.
