A rare cause of acute hypernatraemia: Diabetes insipidus secondary to suprasellar tuberculoma

Abstract

Suprasellar tuberculomas are uncommon causes of intracranial tumours worldwide, even in areas endemic for tuberculosis. Often, they present with combinations of pituitary hormone involvement, which can lead to various complications due to hypopituitarism. We present a rare case of suprasellar tuberculoma leading to diabetes inspidus.
