ABSTRACT
Diabetes mellitus is a non-transmissible chronic disease, very frequent in the city of
Matanzas, which is present in any age group, and is classified as type I and type II.
In the type I diabetes, the body does not produce insulin. In the type II diabetes,
the most common one, the body does not produce or does not use it effectively.
Without enough insulin, glucose remains in the blood, causing
several complications, both acute and chronic. The diabetes insipidus is a few
common disorder of the water metabolism. That means that the balance between
the quantity of water or any other fluid someone drinks does not coincide with the
volume of the urinary excretion. It is due to a lack of answer or a deficient answer
to the anti-diuretic hormone vasopressin. This hormone controls the water balance
through the urine concentration. The patients with diabetes insipidus urinate a lot,
so they need to drink many liquids to replace those they lose. It is presented the
case of a patient aged 45 years, with health antecedents, that debuted with
diabetes insipidus and a year later with a concomitant type II diabetes mellitus. The
complementary tests confirmed that and the patient got better with the treatment.
