High sensitivity to tolvaptan in paraneoplastic syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH).
Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) not only induces uncharacteristic clinical symptoms but also increases morbidity and mortality [1, 2]. The recent introduction of vaptans acting as V2-receptor antagonists considerably improved the unconvincing results of conventional treatment consisting of fluid restriction potentially combined with sodium supplementation and/or...
متن کاملInappropriate vasopressin secretion (SIADH) in burned patients.
To determine if concentration of plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) is inappropriate for the plasma Na+ concentration in hyponatremic burned patients, we obtained 32 plasma samples from 20 patients with total burn size (TBS) 15 to 80% of body surface on or after postburn day (PBD) 4 in the morning following all-night recumbency. In the 25 samples (17 patients) with hyponatremia, AVP was elevated...

CASE 1 A 61 year old woman presented with a two day history of pleuritic chest pain and a productive cough. Material obtained by biopsy of an endoscopically visible bronchial tumour showed appearances of small cell undifferentiated carcinoma. Staging procedures suggested that this was confined to the thorax. Haematological and biochemical indices were normal. She commenced treatment with two cy...

We present a case of severe Mycobacterium kansasii infection due to the clinical and radiological progression and complicated with syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). This 54-year-old male alcoholic and heavy smoker as predisposing factors presented severe anorexia, asthenia and cachexia. Abundant acid-fast bacilli (AFB) were observed in the patient’s sputum and pl...
متن کاملCompeting interests in a lung cancer with metastasis to the pituitary gland: syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion versus diabetes insipidus
Metastases to the pituitary gland are rare; cancers that most commonly metastasize to the pituitary are breast and lung cancers. No specific computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging features reliably distinguish primary pituitary masses from metastases. A combination of a detailed clinical assessment together with specialist endocrine and neuroradiology support is essential to make the...
