title: Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion and diabetes insipidus in an infant following surgery.
abstract: Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone and diabetes insipidus occurring in very short order in the same patient is rare. We report a 9 month-old male infant suffering form holoprosencephaly developed syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone followed by diabetes insipidus within a relative short time postoperatively after his third operation. Inability to suppress as well as to stimulate arginine vasopressin secretion and anesthetic and surgical stresses, were thought to be the possible causes of this event.
