A case of a 16-year-old who developed diabetes insipidus (DI) 9 years after cessation of therapy for ALL is reported. Because hereditary and traumatic factors are excluded as a cause of DI in this patient, possible explanations may be leukemic CNS relapse, secondary brain tumor, primitive idiopathic DI, and late sequelae of CNS radiochemotherapy.

A case of a 16-year-old who developed diabetes insipidus (DI) 9 years after cessation of therapy for ALL is reported. Because hereditary and traumatic factors are excluded as a cause of DI in this patient, possible explanations may be leukemic CNS relapse, secondary brain tumor, primitive idiopathic DI, and late sequelae of CNS radiochemotherapy.File in questo prodotto:
