Severe hyponatremia with seizure owing to the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) or cerebral/renal salt wasting syndrome related with high mortality. The correct diagnosis of the hyponatremia for each case is important because of the alteration of the treatment approach. SIADH is an important clinical manifestation that does not occur after all chemotherapy courses. We cannot estimate whether the disease will occur on, which course of the chemotherapy in this case.

Paraneoplastic endocrine syndromes: a contemporary overview.
Expert Rev Endocrinol Metab

Carrera de Medicina Humana, Universidad Científica del Sur, Lima, Perú.
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.

Background: NK-1 receptor antagonists (NK-1RAs) are proven to be successful in preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). The safety profile of NK-1RAs has not been systematically analyzed in the real world. This pharmacovigilance study investigated the differences in adverse events (AEs) between NK-1RAs.

The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) is a frequent cause of hyponatremia that presents substantial management challenges in clinical settings. Despite a range of treatment options, including fluid restriction, demeclocycline, and vasopressin antagonists, urea remains underutilized, particularly in North America, despite its well-documented efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness. Urea corrects hyponatremia by promoting osmotic diuresis without causing significant fluid shifts, making it an ideal treatment for both acute and chronic SIADH.

We reported the diagnostic and therapeutic process of a young male patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who presented with severe hyponatremia as the main manifestation upon admission, and analyzed and discussed the case. The patient was a 19-year-old young male with a subacute course of disease, fever ≥38.3 ℃ that could not be explained by other causes, acute and subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus, oral ulcers, arthritis, leukopenia (< 4×10/L), low C3+low C4, and positive anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA).

Introduction: Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare malignant tumor originating from the olfactory neuroepithelium, typically within the sinonasal cavity. Cases of ONB originating outside of the olfactory cleft area are extremely rare and are referred to as "ectopic" (eONB), in contrast to "orthotopic" tumors (oONB). ONB has been associated with paraneoplastic syndromes (PNSs), including the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH).
