Occult pulmonary malignancy in syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion with normal ADH levels.
Although the syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH) has many causes, principally pulmonary, central nervous system or neoplastic disease, and drugs, patients may present with SIADH in whom the etiology is not readily evident. We measured serum ADH levels in such an individual in both the eunatremic and water-loaded states and found levels to be undetectable despite failure to dilute th...
متن کاملUrea for management of the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of ADH: A systematic review.
Urea has been recently proposed for the management of hyponatremia linked to the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of ADH (SIADH). The objective of the study was to review the levels of evidence for treatment of hyponatremia associated with SIADH with urea. We performed a: systematic review of experimental trials and grading according to SIGN. No clinical trials were found. The 6 studies anal...
متن کاملHigh 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 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...
متن کاملInappropriate Secretion of TSH Syndrome
The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of TSH was the term originally coined to indicate two forms of central hyperthyroidism, i.e. thyrotropin (TSH)-secreting pituitary adenomas (TSHomas) and resistance to thyroid hormone action (RTH). Both forms are characterized by high levels of free thyroxine (FT4) and free triiodothyronine (FT3) in the presence of measurable TSH concentrations, a biochem...
