Infective processes are a common precipitant of DKA. We report two cases of dentoalveolar infections in patients with type I diabetes mellitus who presented with DKA. The management of such cases requires both specialist surgical and medical intervention. | Gov't Doc #: | 11936401 | URI: | http://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/9397 | DOI: | 10.1054/ijom.2001.0140 | Journal: | International journal of oral and maxillofacial surgery | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11936401 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Adult Anti-Bacterial Agents.therapeutic use Diabetic Ketoacidosis.drug therapy.etiology Drainage Focal Infection, Dental.complications.therapy Humans Injections, Subcutaneous Insulin.administration & dosage Male Periodontal Abscess.complications.therapy |
