We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of posterior pituitary dysfunction in a large cohort of survivors of TBI. One hundred two consecutive patients (85 males) who suffered severe or moderate TBI were evaluated for diabetes insipidus (DI)...

Based on data in the current literature, approximately 15%-20% of T...
