Abstract
Serum LH, FSH, TSH, PRL, GH, and cortisol were measured in 10 patients with posttraumatic diabetes insipidus both basally and after a combined insulin-induced hypoglycemia, LRH and TRH test. Two patients did not show hormonal abnormalities, while 8 patients had deficiencies of 1 or more hormones. The most frequent abnormality was GH deficiency (50%), followed by TSH (40%), ACTH (30%), FSH (30%0, and LH (20%). These results indicate that anterior pituitary dysfunction frequently accompanies posttraumatic diabetes insipidus.
