Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) may be observed in various types of cancer, but is mainlyseen in small-cell carcinoma. It can also be caused by several chemotherapeutic agents. However, it is a very rare phenomenon inesophageal cancer or its treatment. We report here on a case of SIADH related to esophageal cancer treatment. A 55-year-old manreceived chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for esophageal cancer. After receiving CRT for 5 days, he complained of nausea, dizziness, andgeneral weakness, and his sodium level had dropped to 107 mEq/L. His volume status was clinically euvolemic and there were noedema or pigmentation. After hypertonic saline infusion, the sodium level increased and the symptoms improved. There have beenseveral reports of SIADH associated with malignancies or chemotherapy agents. However, to the best of our knowledge, this is thefirst Korean case of SIADH associated with esophageal cancer that occurred after cisplatin treatment.
