✦ Synopsis

A previously healthy 48-year-old male developed diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypophosphatemia. Within a few hours, acute respiratory insufficiency developed with a marked discrepancy between the pulmonary pathology and the very poor oxygenation seen. We argue that this was due to the effect of hypophosphatemia on respiratory muscle- and heart function and P50, leading to impaired oxygen delivery.

This is the first record of hypophosphataemia in acute liver failure induced by paracetamol; it occurred in most of the patients and was severe (<0.3 mmol/l) in more than one third. At this level hypophosphataemia produces impaired oxygen transport and tissue hypoxia, abnormal leucocyte function, de
