Adipsic Diabetes Insipidus - the challenging combination of polyuria and adipsia : a case report and review of literature. Frontiers in Endocrinology, 10, 630-. doi:10.3389/fendo.2019.00630 | Journal: | Frontiers in Endocrinology | Abstract: | Adipsic Diabetes Insipidus is a rare hypothalamic disorder characterized by a loss of thirst in response to hypernatraemia accompanied by diabetes insipidus. These occur secondary to a congregation of defects in the homeostatic mechanisms of water balance. A 27-year old Chinese female presented with Adipsic Diabetes Insipidus after cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) surgery. Initial diagnosis and management was extremely challenging. Long term management required a careful interplay between low dose vasopressin analog treatment and fluids. Detailed charts of medication and sodium balance are described in the case presentation. We performed a literature search of similarly reported cases and describe the possible pathogenesis, etiology, clinical presentation, acute and chronic management, and prognosis. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/142472 | ISSN: | 1664-2392 | DOI: | 10.3389/fendo.2019.00630 | Schools: | Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) | Organisations: | Metabolic Medicine | Rights: | © 2019 Dalan, Chin, Hoe, Chen, Tan, Boehm and Chua.
