Despite the fact that diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare independent disorder, there are many publications on this subject in the contemporary literature. Interest to the problem of DI is due to the fact that the syndrome of diabetes insipidus can be both a separate disease (central, nephrogenic, hereditary forms) and meet with various diseases of many organs and systems, and also be a complication of neurosurgical procedures. However, in the literature there are no data on the incidence of the disease in different countries, and the prevalence of DI syndrome is shown in a number of multicenter studies of various diseases — Langerhans cell histiocytosis, head injury, pituitary adenomas, etc.
