title: [Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of vasopressin. Apropos of 3 cases].
abstract: 3 cases of inappropriate vasopressin secretion during one case of anaplastic carcinoma of the lung, one case of carcinoma of the prostate with bony metastases and one case of acute intermittent porphyria are presented. The plasma levels of vasopressin, measured by radioimmunoassay were high. Treatment with demeclocycline was attempted in one case. The clearance of free water was positive but the treatment was poorly tolerated by the digestive tract.
