    Area of Science:

    • Medical Mycology
    • Dermatology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) can predispose patients to opportunistic infections.
    • Vulvar lesions require careful differential diagnosis, especially in immunocompromised individuals.
    • Necrotic ulcerative lesions can present similarly across various infectious and non-infectious etiologies.
