Diabetes insipidus and two consecutive pregnancies: a case report and review of the literature

Year: 2011

Type: article

Abstract: We report a case of a woman with a preexisting Diabetes Insipidus (DI), who had two consecutive uncomplicated pregnancies. Both pregnancies resulted after spontaneous conception and had a similar uneventful course. At the time of conception the patient was receiving 1-desamino-8D-arginine-vasopressin (DDAVP) 30 μg/d which maintained a urinary volume of 2-3 L/d. Pre-existed DI can be handled carefully and result in an uncomplicated pregnancy. In such cases careful monitoring of the patient's fluid balance and liver enzymes, as well as monitoring for pre-eclampsia and oligohydramnios during pregnancy are essential.
