[h=1]Influenza A: another cause of SIADH?[/h] Mifsud S[SUP]1[/SUP], Zammit MA[SUP]2[/SUP], Casha R[SUP]2[/SUP], Fsadni C[SUP]2[/SUP].

[h=3]Abstract[/h] The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion is a frequent cause of hyponatraemia. It is a dilutional hyponatraemia secondary to impaired urinary dilution in the absence of renal disease or any identifiable non-osmotic stimulus known to induce antidiuretic hormone secretion. SIADH can arise secondary to various respiratory tract infections; however, the association between SIADH and influenza A infection is described in only a few cases in the literature. The authors present a case report of influenza A that may have caused a profound SIADH-related hyponatraemia.
