Abstract
In fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D), irreversible destruction of pancreatic beta-cells occurs abruptly, leading to sudden diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in the absence of diabetes-related autoantibodies. This is the first case report of FT1D in which beta-cell was rescued with the commencement of insulin therapy during the evolution of FT1D.
