Abstract

This article will discuss the consequences of chronic hyponatremia. In conditions such as cancer, heart failure, liver cirrhosis, or chronic kidney disease, the presence and magnitude of hypotonic hyponatremia are considered to reflect the severity of the underlying disease and are associated with increased morbidity as well as mortality. Hyponatremia can be acute (<48 h) or chronic (>2–3 days). Chronic hyponatremia is associated with attention deficit, dizziness, tiredness, gait disturbance, falls, sarcopenia, bone fractures, osteoporosis, hypercalciuria (in the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis—SIADH), and kidney stones. In vitro studies have shown that cells grown in a low concentration of extracellular sodium have a greater proliferation rate and motility. Patients with chronic hyponatremia are more likely to develop cancer. We will not review the clinical consequences of respiratory arrest and osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) of the too-late or excessive treatment of hyponatremia.
