RESUMO
We describe the case of a patient who came with features suggestive of diabetic ketoacidosis. On further evaluation of DKA, we found that it was caused by acute pancreatitis. This acute pancreatitis was found to be caused by hypercalcemia, which was in turn due to primary hyperparathyroidism. Imaging studies done for hyperparathyroidism revealed a thyroid nodule which later turned out to be malignant. This patient was also incidentally found to have hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.

RESUMO
Pulmonary involvement is a fairly common complication of leptospirosis. A high dose of steroids is often used in the treatment of pulmonary leptospirosis. Here we report two cases who developed severe invasive fungal infections following the use of steroids for pulmonary leptospirosis. Routine use of steroids for pulmonary leptospirosis may do more harm than good as the evidence for this practice is sparse.
