abstract="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 the tube. Chest X-ray revealed bilateral infiltrates. Endocrinological data revealed high concentrations of catecholamines. This case indicates that pulmonary edema remains a potential complication of insulin overdose. The possible mechanisms of pulmonary edema associated with hypoglycemia are discussed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
