Abstract
|
|
|
|
Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is characterized by insensitivity of the distal nephron to arginine vasopressin. The most common genetic type of NDI is X-linked, due to mutations in the V2 type of vasopressin receptor in the renal collecting duct. However, autosomal forms are also described. Upper tract dilation secondary to polyuria was previously shown to be associated with NDI. We report a patient with X-linked congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus associated with nonobstructive dilation of the upper urinary tract.
