The association of diabetes insipidus with disturbances of liver function has been reported, however, diabetes insipidus has rarely been reported in HELLP syndrome. We present a 23-year-old primigravida with a singleton gestation complicated by HELLP syndrome who developed postpartum diabetes insipidus. Labor was induced promptly to terminate pregnancy because of intrauterine fetal death and liver dysfunction. 1-deamino-8-D-arginine-vasopressin was administered. Diabetes insipidus and liver dysfunction resolved within 2 weeks. Development of diabetes insipidus may result from increased vasopressinase activity mainly caused by deterioration of liver functions caused by HELLP syndrome. In pregnant women with liver disease as a result of any cause, the development of diabetes insipidus should be assessed with particular attention. © 2006 The Authors.EnglishAdultAntidiuretic AgentsDeamino Arginine VasopressinDiabetes InsipidusFemaleFetal DeathGlucocorticoidsHELLP SyndromeHumansLiver DiseasesPlasma ExchangePostpartum PeriodPregnancydesmopressinadultarticlecase reportclinical featurediabetes insipidusdisease associationenzyme activityfemalefetus deathHELLP syndromehumanliver dysfunctionliver functionpregnancyArticle10.1111/j.1447-0756.2006.00464.x
