A case of ifosfamide-induced acute kidney injury, Fanconi syndrome, and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
AbstractIfosfamide, a cytotoxic antineoplastic drug, can induce rare complications of Fanconi syndrome and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (DI). Ifosfamide-induced Fanconi syndrome tends to occur in patients with certain risk factors including young age, high cumulative ifosfamide dose, and coadministration of cisplatin. Nephrogenic DI causes polyuria from impaired urinary concentrating ability due to resistance to arginine vasopressin (AVP) at the collecting duct. These complications are serious and potentially fatal. Here, we describe a case of a middle-aged man without risk factors who was admitted for the management of ...

Tocilizumab for the fifth progression of cystic childhood craniopharyngioma —a case report
We present the case of a 15-year-old girl, with a fifth cystic progression of an adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma after multiple surgeries and previous local radiotherapy. She had severe visual impairment, panhypopituitarism including diabetes insipidus, and several components of hypothalamic damage, including morbid obesity and severe fatigue. To prevent further late effects hampering her quality of survival, she was treated biweekly with intravenous tocilizumab, an anti-interleukin-6 agent, which stabilized the cyst for a prolonged time. Based on the biology of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma, this immune-modulating...

Lithium-induced Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus with Efficacy of Desmopressin in Combination with Thiazide Diuretics and Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs: A Case Report with a Review of the Literature
Intern Med. 2023 Sep 29. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.2437-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is characterized by excessive urination and an inability to concentrate urine. Lithium is the most common cause of acquired NDI. Treatment typically involves thiazide diuretics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). However, the efficacy of desmopressin in NDI remains unclear. We herein report a case of lithium-induced NDI in a 71-year-old woman with lithium-induced NDI. Thiazide diuretics and NSAIDs reduced the urine output by approximately 40% compared to pretreatment, while the a...
