The authors report a case of Guillain-Barré syndrome occurring after a hip replacement associated with hyponatremia due to a syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). They describe and review the literature about this syndrome's etiology and its association, relatively rare, with SIADH. The diagnostic reasoning and the therapeutic possibilities are described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
