Abstract: Central diabetes insipidus and adipsic disorders are often accompanied by abnormalities such as hypothalamic lesion. The development of hypothalamic diabetes insipidus with adipsia after clipping of an anterior communicating artery aneurysm has rarely been reported. Recently, we experienced a 52-year-old woman who presented with adipsia, polyuria, and hypernatremia after clipping of a ruptured aneurysm in the anterior communicating artery. She was diagnosed with hypothalamic diabetes insipidus and adipsic disorder and treated with intranasal desmopressin and regular water intake. This is the 11 th case of adipsic diabetes insipidus associated with an anterior communicating artery aneurysm in the world, and the first reported case in Korea. (Korean J Med 77:S1217-S1221, 2009)
