Introduction: Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a well-recognized complication with the use of sodium linked cotransport of glucose-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Diabetic myonecrosis is a rare complication of diabetes mellitus caused by spontaneous death of muscle due to microvascular ischemia. Clinical Case: A 48-year-old male diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with HbA1c 11.3%, treated with Empagliflozin and basal-bolus insulin was admitted to the hospital with left thigh pain and anorexia. Physical examination was notable for BMI of 19kg/m2 and left lateral thigh induration. Laboratory evaluation revealed venous pH 7.1, bicarbonate 10mmol/L (20-30), anion gap 32mmol/L(8-12), glucose 168mg/dl (65-99), ESR 67mm/h (<=12), Creatinine Kinase 31 U/L (63-473), glucosuria (4+) and ketonuria (4+). He was diagnosed with euglycemic DKA due to SGLT2 inhibitor. He was also diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) based on undetectable C-peptide and GAD antibody titer 64.3IU/ml(<5). MRI of the left thigh revealed an area of diabetic myonecrosis, measuring 11cm. He was treated with continuous insulin infusion. On hospital day 3, after resolution of the anion gap metabolic acidosis, transition was made to basal-bolus insulin. On hospital day 5, recurrent euglycemic DKA was diagnosed with bicarbonate 15mmol/L, anion gap 18mmol/L, beta-hydroxybutyrate 49.6mg/dl (<=3mg/dl), glucose 185mg/dl, glucosuria (4+) and ketonuria (4+). Continuous insulin infusion was restarted. On hospital day 8, transition was made to subcutaneous insulin. Diabetic myonecrosis was initially managed conservatively with analgesics, aspirin, and physical therapy. Due to worsening leukocytosis on hospital day 13, Ceftriaxone was started and surgical debridement was performed, revealing a loculated abscess within necrotic muscle. Empagliflozin was discontinued at discharge. Discussion: The risk of euglycemic DKA with SGLT2i use is increased in patients with T1DM and decreased oral intake, and insults like trauma or surgery as seen in this patient. Although the half-life of empagliflozin is 12 to 14 hours, there have been case reports of persistent or recurrent euglycemic DKA for 7-12 days from the time of last dose. The continued glucosuria and ketonuria in this patient with serum glucose levels below the renal threshold confirmed the recurrence. Diabetic myonecrosis usually affects the muscles of the proximal lower extremities and is seen in patients with poorly controlled diabetes with microvascular complications, between one and two decades after diagnosis, as in this patient. Conclusion: A high index of suspicion for recurrent euglycemic DKA must be maintained in patients who have new or persistent high anion gap metabolic acidosis until 2 weeks from last dose of SGLT2 inhibitor. Diabetic myonecrosis, especially if complicated by abscess formation, may require surgical intervention. Presentation: 6/1/2024
