Hypothyroidism is a procoagulant state; hypothyroid females have greater risk of DVT than hypothyroid males. We present a case of primary hypothyroidism who presented with euvolemic hyponatremia and DVT that required thyroxine replacement and correction of hyponatremia. This highlights that hypothyroidism can present as euvolemic hyponatremia and deep vein thrombosis.

Introduction: Endocrine paraneoplastic syndromes (ePNS) are caused by malignant cells that induce hormonal alterations unrelated to the tissue of origin of the neoplasm. The aim of this manuscript is to review the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of endocrine paraneoplastic syndromes (ePNS).

Areas Covered: We searched the PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Scielo databases, including 96 articles.

Unlabelled: The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) is a common cause of euvolemic hyponatremia, resulting from non-osmotic release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). SIADH is frequently associated with neurological conditions, including traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBI-associated SIADH usually develops within days to weeks and resolves within a few weeks.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare malignant vascular tumor whose pleural EHE (pEHE) type is even more uncommon, with significant heterogeneity in the clinical behavior as well as challenging diagnosis and treatment decisions. Herein, we present a 74-year-old woman admitted to the hospital with dyspnea, pleural effusion, and refractory euvolemic hyponatremia. Chest computed tomography revealed a large right-side pleural effusion with irregular thickening of the parietal pleura and localized nodularity.

The development of a dual V1a/V2 antagonist compound is a complex and challenging task. Conivaptan is up to now the only known V1a/V2 antagonist which was approved for the treatment of euvolemic hyponatremia. Previously, we reported RGH-122, a novel selective V1a antagonist compound.

Article Synopsis
  • Rathke's cleft cyst (RCC) is a benign cyst that usually goes unnoticed but can be associated with rare cases of hyponatremia due to inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion.
  • The case study discusses a 56-year-old woman who experienced symptoms like blurry vision and headaches, ultimately diagnosed with euvolemic hyponatremia linked to RCC, which was treated effectively via endoscopic surgery.
  • The article emphasizes the need for careful evaluation and a multidisciplinary approach in managing such rare instances, while calling for more research to enhance understanding and treatment strategies for RCC related to SIADH.
