Idiopathic Arginine Vasopressin Deficiency With Mild and Reversible Hypercalcemia
Patients with arginine vasopressin deficiency can manifest concomitant mild and reversible dehydration-related hypercalcemia. A brisk increase in urine osmolality following subcutaneous arginine vasopressin injection and normal serum calcium levels after desmopressin therapy can establish that hypercalcemia is the effect and not the cause of the primary disorder.
