The first case of severe hyponatremia, since referred to as beer potomania, in a heavy beer drinker patient was reported in 1972. Excessive consumption of beer in particular, which has a low solute content, may result in severe hyponatremia. We report a case of severe hyponatremia that occurred in a patient who, owing to his underlying colon cancer, was drinking beer and ingesting little food.
1972年报道了首例重度低钠血症病例,该病例后来被称为啤酒狂饮综合征,患者为一名重度啤酒饮用者。尤其是过量饮用溶质含量低的啤酒,可能会导致重度低钠血症。我们报告了一例重度低钠血症病例,该患者因患有结肠癌,饮用啤酒且进食很少。
