We experienced three patients who have collagen diseases with respiratory failure accompanied by hyponatremia. They were one systemic lupus erythematosus patient with interstitial pneumonia, one rheumatoid arthritis patient with acute pneumonitis, and one dermatomyositis patient with pulmonary fibrosis and organizing pneumonia. In all 3 patients, hyponatremia appeared along with a decrease in arterial O2 partial pressure (PaO2) and the hyponatremia tended to improve when the PaO2 increased after inhalation of oxygen, even though their respiratory failure were not improved. In dermatomyositis patient, serum Na levels were over-corrected after increase in PaO2. The serum and urine osmolality, serum antidiuretic hormone (ADH) levels and clinical pictures demonstrated a presence of inappropriate secretion of ADH (SIADH) in all 3 cases when hyponatremia and hypoxia appeared. A close association between hyponatremia and hypoxia observed in 3 patients strongly suggested that their SIADH were associated with hypoxia since SIADH could be demonstrated by hypoxia. Therefore, it is important to realize that hypoxia-induced hyponatremia will be promptly corrected to hypernatremia by an oxygen inhalation, which could cause a lethal central pontine myelinolysis.

A 75-year-old man was transferred to our hospital on November 28, 2003 because of acute aggravation while being treated for interstitial pneumonia superimposed on pneumoconiosis at a local hospital. Upon admission, oxygen inhalation therapy and antimicrobial chemotherapy were started for the interstitial pneumonia. In addition, since he showed hyponatremia from admission, a saline load was administered and the clinical course was observed. However, disturbance of consciousness developed on January 5, 2004. At that time, the serum sodium was 115mEq/l. Since secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) had continued despite a low plasma osmolarity, we diagnosed syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). We initiated treatment with water restriction and saline load, but no remarkable improvement was observed. From February 7, 40mg /day prednisolone was started because of aggravation of interstitial pneumonia. As a result, the respiratory status and image findings improved, and serum sodium level was normalized. This case was considered to be SIADH secondary to interstitial pneumonia. Among respiratory tract diseases, SIADH is often caused by small cell lung carcinoma, although it may also occur concurrently with other respiratory tract diseases. Since hyponatremia may manifest grave disturbance of consciousness, investigation of the cause is important.

An 87-year-old man had been treated under a diagnosis of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and sick sinus syndrome since 1996. His heart failure was worsened by atrial fibrillation in August 2004. He received amiodarone from October 2004. He was admitted to our hospital with shortness of breath in February 2005. Chest radiography revealed a diffuse reticular shadow in the right lung field and pleural effusion. The diagnosis was interstitial pneumonitis induced by amiodarone. However, 10 days after the discontinuation of amiodarone, the serum sodium concentration fell to 114mEq/l. The blood and urine chemical data were consistent with syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). The serum sodium concentration improved with fluid restriction. Clinicians should be aware that SIADH may occur during amiodarone therapy.

We present a case of a patient with drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) caused by salazosulfapyridine combined with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) caused by interstitial pneumonia (IP). A 67-year-old man with a past history of rheumatism (RA) presented with right hemiparalysis and aphasia as the chief complaints. A diagnosis of left embolic cerebral infarction following trial therapy for RA based on computed tomography findings was made, and external decompression was performed. Salazosulfapyridine was newly started on day 7. Dabigatran was started on day 37. On day 41, the patient developed fever. On day 42, edema and erythema appeared on his face, and erythema and rash appeared on his trunk and extremities, with gradual transition to erythroderma. The drug eruption was initially attributed to the dabigatran. Various symptoms of organ dysfunction (enteritis, myocarditis, interstitial pneumonia, hepatic disorder, stomatitis, and others) then appeared and persisted; hence, a diagnosis of DIHS associated with human herpes virus 6 and cytomegalovirus infection induced by salazosulfapyridine was suggested, and the oral administration of salazosulfapyridine was discontinued on day 53. Hyponatremia was observed in association with exacerbation of IP. Due to low serum osmotic pressure and prompt improvement of the serum sodium level by fluid restriction, the SIADH was attributed to IP. In this case, steroid pulse therapy followed by gradual decrease therapy prevented worsening of the condition.
