Metastatic brain tumors from gastric cancer are extremely rare. A 61-year-old Korean woman, initially presenting with polydipsia and polyuria, was found to have metastatic lesions in the brain by MRI. We performed several diagnostic procedures to determine the origin of the brain metastases. She was

A 56-year old female patient who was undergoing follow-up for cervical cancer in our oncology center was presented to the emergency center with anxiety and excessive thirst. The initial serum sodium level of the patient exceeded 200mEq/L, rising up to 238mEq/L during hospitalization. The extremely

Panhypopituitarism due to metastases to the hypothalamus and the pituitary resulting from primary breast cancer: a case report and review of the literature.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pituitary metastasis occurs rarely in cancer patients and often remains undiagnosed. However, early detection and appropriate treatment can improve the patient's quality of life and possibly prolong survival. Herein, we describe the case of a 52-year-old woman with panhypopituitarism caused by

Parathyroid carcinoma: A rare case with mandibular brown tumor.

Only registered users can translate articles

Parathyroid carcinoma constitutes less than 1 % of primary hyperparathyroidism. The male to female ratio is approximately equal and the mean age at presentation is 40 years. In about half of the patients there is a palpable cervical mass, and serum calcium level is usually above 14 mg/dl. In a case

Small cell lung cancer with panhypopituitarism due to ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome: A case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for 15% of lung cancers, and it commonly expresses peptide and protein factors that are active as hormones. These secreting factors manifest as paraneoplastic disorders, such as ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) syndrome (EAS). The

Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy controls inappropriate calcitriol secretion in a pancreatic neuro-endocrine tumor: a case report

Only registered users can translate articles

Background: Hypercalcemia of malignancy is not uncommon in patients with advanced stage cancer. In rare cases the cause of the hypercalcemia is excessive production of calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D. Although inappropriate

[Diabetes insipidus as an early clinical manifestation of pineal tumor]

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE: To present a pineal tumor diagnosed after long clinical course of diabetes insipidus.CASE REPORT: A ten years old male patient, with symptoms of polyuria, polydipsia and nocturia for 18 months was admitted at the Nephrology Unit with the diagnosis of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Six

Central diabetes insipidus in a dog with a pro-opiomelanocortin-producing pituitary tumor not causing hyperadrenocorticism.

Only registered users can translate articles

Central diabetes insipidus was diagnosed by vasopressin measurements during hypertonic stimulation in a 9-year-old male giant Schnauzer with polyuria and polydipsia. The impaired release of vasopressin was believed to be caused by a large pituitary tumor, which was visualized by computed tomography.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 56-year-old Japanese man presented with a 2-month duration of polyuria and polydipsia. The diagnosis of diabetes insipidus was confirmed by water deprivation and vasopressin injection. The secretory function of the adenohypophysis was estimated as normal by a variety of provocative tests. Magnetic

Endocrine dysfunction in Taiwanese children with human chorionic gonadotropin-secreting germ cell tumors.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)-secreting germ cell tumors (GCTs) are rare childhood malignancies with unique clinical manifestations but delayed diagnosis is common. The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical manifestations and endocrine dysfunction of Taiwanese children

Polyuria and polydipsia and disturbed vasopressin release in 2 dogs with secondary polycythemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

In dogs, secondary polycythemia (SP) may be associated with polyuria and polydipsia (PU/PD). The pathogenesis of this PU/PD has not yet been explained. We hypothesized that hyperviscosity and increased blood volume in SP might affect vasopressin (VP) release, resulting in PU/PD. This hypothesis was

Delays in Diagnosis of Pediatric Histologically Confirmed Sellar Germ Cell Tumors in China: A Retrospective Risk Factor Analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Sellar germ cell tumors (GCTs) occur more frequently in childhood. Some will present as malignancy with infiltration and metastasis. However, the association between the timeliness of diagnosis and outcome has been controversial. We investigated the clinical risk factors associated with a

Tolvaptan in hospitalized cancer patients with hyponatremia: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial on efficacy and safety.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The rate of hyponatremia is higher in hospitalized cancer patients than in hospitalized patients without cancer and is associated with poor clinical outcomes. The availability of V2 receptor antagonists has been a major breakthrough in the management of hyponatremia, but its efficacy and
