Abstract
The syndrome of inappropriate ADH-secretion (SIADH) is a common cause of low sodium levels with diverse aetiology. Here, we report a case of a 41 years old male patient diagnosed with SIADH and a good response to Tolvaptan therapy. Of interest, as a potential unique cause, magnetic resonance imaging revealed a micronodular structure in the posterior pituitary, while no other common cause of SIADH could be identified. Hence, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of a Tolvaptan-responsive SIADH associated with a pituitary micronodular structure.
期刊介绍：
Publishing outstanding articles from all fields of endocrinology and diabetology, from molecular biology to clinical research, this journal is a brilliant resource. Since being published in English in 1983, the popularity of this journal has grown steadily, reflecting the importance of this publication within its field.
Original contributions and short communications appear in each issue along with reviews addressing current topics. In addition, supplementary issues are published each year presenting abstracts or proceedings of national and international scientific meetings.
The journal was initially published in German and is still the oldest endocrinological periodical in the German-language market!
