Alpelisib-Induced Diabetic Ketoacidosis.

We present the third case of alpelisib-induced diabetic ketoacidosis. Alpelisib is an antineoplastic agent that inhibits phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), which plays a key role in multiple biological processes such as cell differentiation, proliferation, and survival. Thereby, the inhibition of this pathway should cause antitumor activity.

A Woman with Asthma and Peripheral Ground-Glass Opacities.

Eosinophilic lung disease is a heterogeneous group of disorders that reveal eosinophil involved lung tissue often in patients with asthma or atopy. Classification and diagnostic criteria of eosinophilic lung disease are not well-established; however, peripheral ground-glass opacity is typical on chest computed tomography. Another etiology of this same radiographic finding reported in the literature is silicone embolism syndrome.
