2018
Abstract We report a case of a patient with scrub typhus who presented with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The patient initially manifested with DKA, and was diagnosed with acute scrub typhus after evaluation the precipitating factors of DKA. No other complications of scrub typhus were noted. This case report suggests that acute scrub typhus should be considered as a precipitating factor of DKA, especially during the endemic season.
