Failure to thrive: the importance of measuring the electrolytes.

Abstract
Diabetes insipidus (DI) is characterized by hypoosmotic polyuria related to deficiency of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) secretion (centraldiabetesinsipidus, CDI) or renalinsensitivity to AVP (nephrogenicdiabetesinsipidus, NDI). We report a case of a child with congenital NDI.
