    Abstract:
    Diabetes insipidus is a metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in the production of or response to arginine vasopressin (AVP). The lack of, or inability to appropriately respond to, AVP results in a lack of tubular reabsorption of water and urine of low specific gravity. Two main categories of diabetes insipidus are recognized in veterinary medicine: central and nephrogenic.
