- Abstract
Central diabetes insipidus is characterized by polydipsia, polyuria, dehydration, irritability, poor feeding, failure to thrive and hypernatremia. This disease is caused by lack of antidiuretic hormone. Here, a very low birth weight premature infant who developed central diabetes insipidus secondary to pituitary hemorrhage in the newborn period and was treated successfully with intranasal desmopressin acetate was presented. It was emphasized that desmopressin acetate might be an effective method also in the treatment of very low birth weight premature infants.
