Inappropriate Secretion of Antidiuretic Hormone and Transient Hypertension Associated with Guillain-Barré Syndrome

Abstract: A rare case with Guillain-Barré syndrome complicated by inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) and hypertension was reported. This case showed clinically mild symptoms without respiratory muscle paralysis and had a complete neurological recovery. It should, therefore, be considered that the Guillain-Barré syndrome may cause SIADH and hypertension independent of the severity of the disease.

“…Robertson divided the SIADH into three types of abnormal vasopressin (VAS) release during hypertonic saline infusion [14,18]: type A, high, inconsistent fluctuations unrelated to increases in plasma sodium; type B, a slow regular release, which is also unaltered by increases in plasma sodium; type C, a quick progressive increase in plasma VAS that closely correlates with plasma sodium as it rises towards the normal range; there is also another kind, type D, that appears in a low percentage of patients, where there is no demonstrable defect in the osmoregulation of VAS and the cause of inappropriate antidiuresis is unclear [18,19].…”

“…On the other hand, the presence of VAS, AGII, and TH and their implication in cardiovascular, salt water balance and blood pressure regulation have long been described in the hypothalamus in man and different animal species [7][8][9][10]. Several authors have also described the detection of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactivity and vasopressin mRNA and ANGII in the hypothalamus that could be related to hypertension and SIADH [11][12][13][14]. Furthermore, the subfornical organ (SFO) is a circumventricular organ located in the medial plane, below the commissure of fornix (Figures 1(a) and 1(b)), which contains neurons, glia, and a dense plexus of highly fenestrated capillaries, and is covered by an ependymal layer [15,16].…”

“…Clinical reports of elevation in blood pressure in association with SIADH also exist. 27,28) Conivaptan is a combined V 1A /V 2 receptor antagonist 16,17) and the use of the dual antagonist has the theoretical advantage of reducing blood pressure elevated by excessive AVP.…”

Several author have also described the detection of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactivity and vasopressin mRNA and ANGII in the hypothalamus that could be related with the hypertension and SIADH [9][10][11][12]. The aim of the present work is to analyze the hypothalamic distribution of vasopressin (VAS), AGII and Tyrosinehydroxylase (TH) in a case of SIADH.…”
