Abstract
The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) has been describ ed in patients suffering from leukemia or lymphoma involving the central ne rvous system. Several alkylating agents have also been associated with this syndrome. We describe a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, without evidence of central nervous system involvement, who suffered from SIADH pr esumably caused by small doses of chlorambucil.
