Diabetic ketoacidosis is associated with an increased anion gap but its recovery phase may be complicated by hyperchloraemic acidosis with a normal anion gap. We report a case where this complication developed. There was a delayed return to normal acid-balance, possibly aggravated by administration of hyperchloraemic fluids, and the true diagnosis was overlooked. Measurement of the anion gap remains an important part of the assessment of diabetic acid-base disturbances.
