Severe hyperglycaemia associated with prolonged isoflurane anaesthesia in an alpaca (Vicugna pacos)
Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Alpacas possess distinct glucose and insulin regulatory mechanisms compared with other species, often maintaining higher baseline blood glucose as a normal physiological adaptation. Inhalant anaesthetic agents can further disrupt glucose, insulin and potassium homeostasis, particularly during prolonged procedures.
