Abstract
In a young woman with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, poor diabet ic control during the second trimester of pregnancy resulted in ketoac idosis, accelerated fetal growth and polyhydramnios. With the establis hment of tight maternal glycaemic control, both accelerated intrauteri ne growth and polyhydramnios were reversed and a good pregnancy outcom e resulted.
