Abstract

A 9-year-old girl with remarkable hyponatremia was diagnosed with SIADH that was likely secondary to varicella. Under appropriate treatment, her serum sodium returned to the normal level. There was no evidence of hyponatremia at a 3-month follow-up. We propose that medical professionals need to consider the existence of that SIADH when treating patients with varicella who present with severe hyponatremia.
