A 71-year-old female with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) developed the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) during respiratory failure due to atrophy of the respiratory muscles. Serum sodium concentration fell to 116 mEq/l and then returned to the normal range after water restriction and respiratory care. This is considered to be the first case report of ALS associated with SIADH.

Two cases of miliary tuberculosis with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) were reported. Case 1. A 70-year-old woman suffering from general fatigue and appetite loss developed neck stiffness and stupor three days after admission. The chest X-ray film showed a miliary pattern in both lungs. The lumber puncture showed high pressure and increased leucocytes in the cerebrospinal fluid. Serum natrium concentration was 113 mEq/L. Tubercle bacilli were seen in the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid by the Ziehl-Nielsen staining. An improvement in electrolytes balance was produced by 2.5% NaCl and antituberculous treatment, then her mental function recovered. Case 2. A 71-year-old man was admitted with gastric ulcer. When he developed dry cough thirty days after admission, the chest X-ray film showed a miliary pattern in both lungs. Acute respiratory failure advanced concomitantly. Tubercle bacilli were seen in the sputum (Gaffky 5) by the Ziehl-Nielsen staining. Antituberculous treatment was started. Although the miliary shadow improved gradually, hyponatremia was rather progressing. The following values for serum constituents were determined: sodium, 118 mEq/L; antidiuretic hormone, 10.3 pg/ml. Antituberculous treatment and supplement of NaCl (10 g/day) improved serum natrium level. He had no mental disturbance in his clinical course. In both cases, thyroid, renal and adrenal function were normal. Systemic edema and dehydration did not exist at the state of hyponatremia, and it was very clear that laboratory data were compatible with SIADH criteria. Miliary tuberculosis is one of the least commonly recognized causes of SIADH.

A 71-year-old man was referred to Tokai University Hospital because of cold intolerance, slow speech and slowing down of his intellectual and motor activities. Free thyroxine index, and free T-4 and T-3 levels were low (1.4, 0.7 ng/dl and 0.4 ng/ml, respectively) with normal TSH (2.5 microIU/ml). A skull X-ray showed enlargement of the sella turcica and his CT scan revealed an intrasellar mass. LH, FSH, ACTH and PRL did not rise in response to the intravenous administration of LH-RH and insulin. A diagnosis of pan-hypopituitarism due to a pituitary tumor was established. The release of ACTH and cortisol was restored under stimulation of CRF or lysine vasopressin. TSH responded to TRH in a delayed manner. The pituitary tumor was removed by a transsphenoidal operation and diagnosed histologically as craniopharyngioma. Our hospital has experienced nine cases of craniopharyngioma in the last 10 years but the present case was the only intrasellar craniopharyngioma.

We reported a case of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) associated with the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). A 71-year-old woman, who had been diagnosed as hypertension and multiple cerebral infarction, was given sulpiride 150 mg daily for depressive state. Three days after started sulpiride, she developed fever, sweating, difficulty of movement and was admitted to the hospital. The white blood cell count rose to 16,300/mm3 and serum creatine kinase (CK) to 3,063 IU/L. Two days later CK rose to 20,050 IU/L regardless of stopping the drug, so she was transferred to our hospital for further investigation. On admission, it was the 6th day from the onset, she was mute and akinetic accompanied by muscle pain and rigidity in extremities. Serum CK was 1,831 IU/L, Na 122 mEq/L, osmolality 244 mOsm/kg, plasma antidiuretic hormone (ADH) level 6.5 pg/ml and urine Na was 101 mEq/L, osmolality 467 mOsm/kg. Renal and adrenal functions, plasma renin activity were normal. From the history, course and these data, diagnosis of NMS associated with SIADH was made. Intravenous sodium (130-200 mEq/day) and fluids (1,000-1,200 ml/day) were carefully infused. She became active, muscle pain disappeared and rigidity, akinesia decreased. CK, serum Na and osmolality gradually improved to normal. About the transient increase in ADH secretion, we considered that hypothalamic disturbance in NMS might induce leakage of stored ADH from neuroendocrine neurons in it.

A 71-year-old woman showed disorientation 7 days after simple mastectomy for right breast cancer. Computed tomography of the brain was normal. The level of serum sodium was very low (110 mEq/l), while the urine sodium level was normal. The osmolality of urine was higher (342 mosmol/kg) than that of serum (220 mosmol/kg). These data suggested a syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. A fluid restriction, infusion of hypertonic saline and administration of diuretics gradually increased the level of serum sodium. Subsequently, disorientation disappeared. This is a rare case of the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone caused by simple mastectomy, a relatively minor surgical procedure.

A 71-year old man with failed back syndrome was admitted to hospital with oliguria that had occurred 4 days after his dose of paroxetine had been increased to 40 mg x day(-1). Laboratory data on admission revealed hyponatremia (124 mmol x l(-1)), low serum osmolarity (267 mOsm x l(-1)) with a normal level of serum antidiuretic hormone (1.7 pg x ml(-1)), and concentrated urine (430 mOsm x l(-1)). He was diagnosed as having syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone, associated with paroxetine; this drug was discontinued immediately after admission. The hyponatremia was treated with saline infusion, water restriction, and furosemide; serum sodium level returned to normal on hospital day 5. Paroxetine is being increasingly used for depression and chronic pain management because of its favorable side-effect profile; however, we should be alert to hyponatremia in patients on paroxetine by carrying out periodic monitoring of serum electrolytes, especially in elderly patients.

Terlipressin is a synthetic analogue of vasopressin, which has been used in the treatment of acute variceal hemorrhage. In contrast to vasopressin, terlipressin can be administered as intermittent injections instead of continuous intravenous infusion. Thus, it has a less adverse reaction than vasopressin. We report a case of ischemic skin complication in a cirrhotic patient treated with terlipressin. A 71-year-old man with liver cirrhosis was admitted because of hematemesis and melena. He was commenced on terlipressin at a dose 1 mg every 6 hours for the treatment of varicieal bleeding. After 36 hours of treatment, skin blistering and ecchymosis was noted on the skin of his upper thigh, scrotal area and trunk. We found that terlipressin was a possible cause of ischemic skin complication based on the skin biopsy finding. Terlipressin may induce a complication of the ischemic event. In spite of rarity, special attention needs to paid on the peripheral ischemic complication of terlipressin.

A 71-year-old valvular patient with cardiac arrhythmia, low ejection fraction, administered angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor underwent aortic and mitral valvular replacement. Starting during normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), hypotension occurred, refractory to phenylephrine, noradrenaline, terlipressin, hydrocortisone and dexchlorpheniramine. After 3 hr of CPB biventricular hyperkinesia, severe hypotension and metabolic acidosis persisted despite volume loading, sodium bicarbonate, adrenaline infusion and intraaortic conterpulsation. Refractory asystole occurred 5 hr postoperatively. The responsability of sepsis and anaphylaxis were ruled out and post-CPB vasoplegic syndrome appeared to be involved. Moderate and severe vasoplegic syndromes are discussed with regards to risk factors, physiology and treatment, including prophylaxis with vasopressin and methylene blue.
