Posttransurethral prostatic resection hyponatremic syndrome: case report and review of the literature

S Sunderrajan et al. Am J Kidney Dis. 1984 Jul.

Abstract

Hyponatremia is a potentially life-threatening complication of transurethral prostatic (TURP) resection. The post-TURP syndrome, although well-recognized by urologists, is not discussed in recent clinical reviews on hyponatremia. We present a case report and review of the literature of this striking clinical syndrome.
