title: Complications and concurrent disease associated with diabetic ketoacidosis and other severe forms of diabetes mellitus.
abstract: The more serious forms of diabetes mellitus such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome (HNKS) are precipitated commonly by other underlying disease processes. In addition, the treatment of these severe forms of diabetes mellitus are often complicated by therapy. This article discusses common concurrent disorders and therapeutic complications seen in both canine and feline diabetes mellitus.
