We describe three patients who developed diabetic ketoacidosis in association with pulmonary coccidioidomycosis and review the literature concerning the influence of diabetes on coccidioidomycosis. Our cases demonstrate that coccidioidomycosis is an infection that can be associated with diabetic ketoacidosis and that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pneumonia in patients who live in a region in which Coccidioides immitis is endemic.
我们描述了3例并发肺球孢子菌病的糖尿病酮症酸中毒患者，并回顾了有关糖尿病对球孢子菌病影响的文献。我们的病例表明，球孢子菌病是一种可与糖尿病酮症酸中毒相关的感染，对于生活在粗球孢子菌流行地区的肺炎患者进行鉴别诊断时应考虑此病。
