antidiuretic/atrophy

Fourth ventricular outlet obstruction (FVOO) is a rare cause of obstructive hydrocephalus. Although FVOO accompanied by malformative syndrome and secondary causes of obstruction are common, there are few reports of primary FVOO (PFVOO). The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion

The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) is described in a 67-year-old man with cerebellar and cerebral atrophy. This is the first reported case of this association.

The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) developed approximately 7 days after a spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage in a 63-year-old woman with an anterior cerebral artery aneurysm. The hyponatremia associated with this syndrome resulted in a deterioration of the

OBJECTIVE The goals of the present study were to evaluate whether the different function of endogenous antidiuretic hormone (arginine vasopressin; AVP) results in the difference in 24-h production/weight and to make indexes of lifestyle advice for patients with nocturia due to nocturnal polyuria

In an open trial 5 mg ramipril daily for 2 weeks was administered to 11 patients with congestive heart failure. 24-hour plasma profiles of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), angiotensin II (Ang II) and aldosterone (Aldo) were determined before and on days 1 and 15 of

We report an autopsy case of granulomatous angiitis of the central nervous system (GANS) complicated by the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). A 88-year old female was admitted because of progressive mental deterioration, fever, and vomiting. A computed tomogram disclosed

Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) has various causes including central nervous system disorders, pulmonary and endocrine diseases, paraneoplastic syndromes, and use of certain drugs. SIADH induced by chemotherapy with irinotecan-cisplatin is not a common complication.

Bilateral optic atrophy developed in a 15-year-old patient receiving concomitant neuraxis radiation therapy and weekly vincristine sulfate for medulloblastoma. Other neurologic manifestations that have been associated with vincristine therapy, including inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic

Hypernatremia was detected in a dog that was evaluated because of seizures. During hospitalization, the dog was fully conscious and remained hypernatremic when drinking voluntarily and when water was added to the food. Urine volume increased and urine osmolality decreased during an infusion of

We have reviewed 14 cases of water intoxication in psychiatric patients. In these cases the possibility of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) was suspected or diagnosed. The SIADH should be suspected in psychotic patients who drink water excessively, develop

The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) has not been reported with temporal arteritis. Two cases are presented in which SIADH was related to the occurrence of temporal arteritis. When deterioration of mental status develops in a patient with temporal arteritis, SIADH

A 72-year-old woman with the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone of unknown cause during more than one year of observation is reported. Plasma vasopressin levels were excessively elevated, even during a water load test. Her serum electrolyte abnormalities and general state
