A 24-year-old obese Caucasian male, without relevant anamnesis, who was admitted to the ER presented with abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, hyperglycemia, and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) was supported by increased serum levels of triglycerides and lipase associated with abdominal CT scans. The patient was treated for five days with IV regular insulin, hydration, electrolytes replacement, and statin/fibrate therapy with clinical improvement. Some 10% hemoglobin A1c value, normal C-peptide level and negative glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD-65), and islet cell autoantibodies suggested the diagnosis of a new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) presenting with an uncommon triad of DKA and hypertriglyceridemia (HTG)-induced AP. Anamnestic history suggested that DKA was dependent on sugar-sweetened soft drinks abuse (soft drink ketosis), a clinical association more frequent in Asian than in Western patients.
