Olfactory neuroblastoma is an uncommon intranasal neoplasm that has not been previously documented to invade the oral cavity. The tumor's variable clinical manifestations and microscopic features may create a diagnostic dilemma for the clinician. The neoplasm has been identified as a direct cause of

An inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) has been recognized as the cause of hypotonic hyponatremia, and the occurrence of this syndrome, accompanied by an ADH-producing adenocarcinoma in the nasal cavity, is reported. In February, 1987, a 50-year-old male, showing sights of delirium,

Antidiuretic hormone had a marked effect on the microscopic anatomy of the pancreas and the duodenum subjected to a closed duodenal loop obstruction. In contrast to the acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis usually seen, the pancreas showed only a slight extravasation of red and white blood cells into the

We report a 74-year-old woman with histologically confirmed neuroendocrine carcinoma of the nasal cavity disclosing a syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). Since SIADH is a paraneoplastic syndrome commonly associated with small cell lung cancer, an extra-pulmonary

In a minority of patients with malignant tumors, signs and symptoms develop that cannot be explained on the basis of the mass effect produced by the primary tumor or its metastases, or production of a hormone normally associated with the tissue type that has given rise to the malignant tumor; these

We here report a case presenting with the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) after having been treated for pleurodesis with OK-432, which is a lyophilized preparation of an attenuated strain of Streptococcus pyogenes. The patient, who had undergone a subtotal

Combined small cell carcinoma (SmCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) is a rare malignant neoplasm in the head and neck. This study presents the first reported case of combined SmCC and SqCC originating from the sinonasal tract accompanied by syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic

We report on a case of the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) associated with lupus erythematosus in the central nervous system (CNS). A 73-year-old woman with essential hypertension suddenly demonstrated consciousness disturbance. Upon her admission, laboratory data

Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a relatively rare nasal or paranasal malignant tumor. This tumor is rarely accompanied by paraneoplastic syndromes such as syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). Here, we report a 31-year-old female with histologically confirmed ONB who had

The fetuses of nine pregnant ewes were chronically cannulated between 86 and 130 days with cannulae in one carotid artery, one jugular vein, the fetal bladder and the amniotic cavity. The effects of infused AVP on fetal urine flow rate and composition were studied. A dose of 35 pmol. h-1 always

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on nocturnal enuresis (NE) related to the nasal airway, nasal breathing, and plasma osmolality (as an indicator for antidiuretic hormone). METHODS Nineteen patients with monosymptomatic primary NE, aged 6-15 years, were treated

Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a complex syndrome. In addition to severe reduction of renal function due to renal vasoconstriction, there is impairment in systemic haemodynamics, activation of the renin-angiotensin and sympathetic nervous systems and antidiuretic hormone, vasoconstriction of the

The vasopressin V2 receptor (V2R) belongs to the Class A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). V2R is expressed in the renal collecting duct (CD), where it mediates the antidiuretic action of the neurohypophyseal hormone arginine vasopressin (CYFQNCPRG-NH2, AVP). Desmopressin ([1-deamino, 8-D]AVP,

A 53-year-old Japanese male noticed pigmented lesions on his right upper gingiva and hard palate in February of 1986. Histological examination revealed in situ malignant melanoma. Chemotherapy, beta-interferon, and oral BCG were given. However, tumors subsequently developed in the nasal cavity in

Renal sodium and water retention and ascites associated with cirrhosis develop in the setting of severe sinusoidal portal hypertension, hyperdynamic circulation (characterized by arterial hypotension, hypervolaemia, high cardiac output and low peripheral vascular resistance), homeostatic activation
