Abstract
English
Gli autori riferiscono su un caso di diabete insipido insorto acutamente, riscontrato in una paziente affetta da Istiocitosi X. Sono discussi i reperti RM, consistenti in un marcato ispessimento del peduncolo ipofisario e scomparsa dell'iperintesità di segnale della neuroipofisi nelle immagini sagittali T1-pesate.
