  • Title: Intracranial calcifications associated with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.
    Author: Nozue T, Uemasu F, Endoh H, Sako A, Takagi Y, Kobayashi A.
    Journal: Pediatr Nephrol; 1993 Feb; 7(1):74-6. PubMed ID: 8439485.
    Abstract:
    A 6-year-old boy with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) and intracranial calcification is reported. The calcifications were symmetrical and located in the basal ganglia and in the subcortical regions of the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes. Episodes of hyperosmolality during infancy are considered to be one of the causes of intracranial calcification in NDI. However, other unknown factors may be involved, because up to now there have been no reports of intracranial calcification in patients with central diabetes insipidus.
