Abstract
|
|
|
|
Post-operative hyponatremia is associated with fluid overload and inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which is related to stress, pain and others. Hyponatremia is a frequently encountered condition in clinical practice but severe post-operative hyponatremia has rarely been reported. Hyponatremia is curable; but severe hyponatremia is a fatal and emergency. Therefore, we should be aware of this phenomenon, diagnosis and management. We experienced one case of severe hyponatremia with generalized convulsion and neurologic symptoms in post-operative period.
