  • Title: Is the paraneoplastic syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion in lung cancer always attributable to the small cell variety?
    Author: Tho LM, Ferry DR.
    Journal: Postgrad Med J; 2005 Nov; 81(961):e17. PubMed ID: 16272226.
    Abstract:
    The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion is a well recognised paraneoplastic phenomenon and the vast majority are associated with small cell lung carcinoma. Rarely however, the non-small cell variety can sometimes be responsible and this report describes such an occurrence. Uniquely in this case, after chemotherapy the paraneoplastic SIADH improved in parallel with a tumour response and this has not been reported previously.
