BACKGROUND Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone(SIADH)is relatively common in several cancers,such as small cell lung cancer.However,nedaplatin-induced SIADH is rare.We describe a case of SIADH mediated by nedaplatin.CASE SUMMARY A 54-year-old female with nasopharyngeal carcinoma was treated with nedaplatin and developed severe hyponatremia due to SIADH.The side effects were successfully treated by fluid restriction and sodium supplementation.CONCLUSION This case report highlights the importance of cautiously treating life-threatening hyponatremia in patients treated with nedaplatin.
