Transient Central Diabetes Insipidus after Discontinuation of Vasopressin

Abstract: Central diabetes insipidus (CDI) is an uncommon condition resulting from lack of vasopressin secretion from the posterior pituitary gland typically caused by some form of destruction of the gland. Here we present a case of transient CDI after discontinuation of vasopressin used for septic shock without evidence of overt pituitary damage. Serum sodium concentration peaked at 160 mmol/L in the setting of polyuria within days of vasopressin discontinuation without identified alternative etiologies. Sodium levels … Show more

“…Conversely, additional treatment with surgery, stable vision status following surgery, transient DI, increased MIB-1/Ki-67 labeling index percentage, low preoperative cortisol axis, and a preoperative diagnosis of acromegaly were shown to increase the odds of a suboptimal outcome. Transient DI is a known complication of pituitary surgery and has been shown to be proportional to the degree of damage to the pituitary gland [31,32]. As a result, more aggressive tumors with a high likelihood of recurrence or progression may require increased margins of resection, thus increasing the rates of transient DI.…”

“…Until 2019 and the COVID19 pandemic, several case reports and two case series described 47 patients who developed a clinical course of DI after vasopressin discontinuation. Not all reports include urine osmolarity results, but all reports described patients with polyuria and increased plasma sodium level (or its increment during polyuria) [ 7 , 14 , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] ]. Of these 47 patients, only 6 were treated with ECMO.…”

“…However, data are emerging that suggest vasopressin may cause transient diabetes insipidus (DI) when discontinued. To date, there have been 14 case reports ( 4 12 ) describing this occurrence. With the use of vasopressin now standard in ICU practice, it is reasonable to expect further reports of this phenomenon.…”
