Abstract
The article cites a case of a 51 year old woman who was diagnosed of hyponatremia secondary to cerebral salt wasting (CSW). The patient has an olfactory neuroblastoma history and suffered from cosmetic defects and complicated by wound infections. She was treated with intravenous normal saline with 5% dextrose and with this therapy her serum sodium increases.
