Diabetes Insipidus in Children: A Comprehensive Review of Etiopathogenesis, Clinical Manifestations, Diagnosis, Differential Diagnosis, Treatment, and Long-Term Follow-Up.

Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare endocrine disorder in children characterized by impaired water homeostasis, leading to excessive thirst and urination. This article provides a unique synthesis of current knowledge, integrating etiopathogenic mechanisms, clinical features, diagnostic strategies, differential considerations, therapeutic approaches, and follow-up protocols. Drawing from recent pediatric endocrinology literature, we emphasize the importance of early recognition to prevent complications like dehydration and growth retardation. This review aims to equip clinicians with a nuanced understanding, highlighting emerging genetic insights and personalized management strategies.
