Abstract
Central diabetes insipidus (DI) was detected in a patient with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) who had been molecularly and serologically diagnosed with Hantaan virus infection. We recommend that clinicians differentiate central DI in HFRS patients with a persistent diuretic phase even when pituitary MRI findings are normal.
Keywords:
Diabetes insipidus; Hantaan virus; Hypopituitarism; Viral hemorrhagic fevers.
