Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) associated with lateral medullary syndrome: case report and literature review

چکیده
BACKGROUND Only one case of syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone with lateral medullary syndrome has been reported so far. We report a case of lateral medullary syndrome showing syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone and analyze the pathomechanism underlying its clinical features. CASE PRESENTATION A 67-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for dizziness, dysarthria, and dysphagia. He was diagnosed with lateral medullary syndrome based on the neurological examination and brain magnetic resonance imaging. Horner syndrome was absent. Asymptomatic hyponatremia appeared 9 days after admission and the patient was diagnosed with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. Fluid restriction and intravenous furosemide injection improved the hyponatremia. CONCLUSION Lateral medullary syndrome could be associated with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone.

متن کاملSyndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion associated with prolonged keterolac use
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used analgesics. Although rare, clinicians need to keep in mind that their use may precipitate hyponatremia and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), especially in high-risk patients with multiple comorbidities. In the kidneys, prostaglandins attenuate the water retention effect of antidiuretic hormone. NSAIDs cause a ...
