Severe type B lactic acidosis and insulin-resistant hyperglycemia related to cadaveric kidney transplantation

Lactic acidosis, increased lactate levels >2mmol/L with a high anion gap metabolic acidosis, commonly occurs due to hypoperfusion/hypoxia (type A) but may also arise due to other causes, often overlooked, such as thiamine deficiency (type B) [1]. We report the perioperative occurrence of severe type B lactic acidosis with insulin-resistant hyperglycemia related to cadaveric kidney transplantation and its rapid resolution after intravenous thiamine administration. Written consent was obtained from the patient.
