RESUMO
Accidental hypothermia, a condition seldomly seen in Chile, is defined as a spontaneous core temperature reduction to less than 35§ C and is associated with great morbidity and mortality. We report a 16 years old female intoxicated with liquefied petroleum gas that was admitted in coma, hypothermic, with severe hemodynamic derangement, lactic acidosis, rhabdomyolysis and iliofemoral phlebothrombosis. Peritoneal dialysis with solutions at 27§ C was used as a quick and safe means to revert hypothermia and avoid its complications
