ABSTRACT
Central diabetes insipidus (CDI) is a neurological pathological condition in which vasopressin synthesis has been compromised. A 52-year-old male presented with a cerebellopontine angle mass not involving the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. Despite vasopressin therapy, the patient produced a total of 8650 mL of urine, with the urine-specific gravity measured at 1.002 near hour 8. A literature review found associations with certain anesthetic drugs that have an increased incidence of CDI, including alpha-2 agonists and sevoflurane. Reports have recommended administering desmopressin over vasopressin, especially for neurosurgery cases that warrant a more extended operative period, given that desmopressin has a longer context-sensitive half-life.
