BACKGROUND The correction and control of chronic hyperglycemia are the management goals of patients living with diabetes.Chronic hyperglycemia is the main factor inducing diabetes-related complications.However,in certain situations,the rapid and intense correction of chronic hyperglycemia can paradoxically favor the onset of microvascular complications.CASE SUMMARY In this case report,we describe the case of a 25-year-old woman living with type 1 diabetes since the age of 9 years.Her diabetes was chronic and unstable but without complications.During an unplanned pregnancy,her diabetes was intensely managed with the rapid correction of her hyperglycemia.However,over the following 2 years,she developed numerous degenerative microvascular complications:Charcot neuroarthropathy with multiple joint involvement,severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy,gastroparesis,bladder voiding disorders,and end-stage renal failure requiring hemodialysis.CONCLUSION In the literature to date,the occurrence of multiple microvascular complications following the rapid correction of chronic hyperglycemia has been rarely described in the same individual.
