Cerebral Salt Wasting Syndrome Following Right Occipital Craniotomy in a Patient With Metastatic Lung Adenocarcinoma.

Cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSW) is characterized by excessive natriuresis leading to hyponatremia and hypovolemia. It is commonly encountered among patients who have undergone brain trauma or subarachnoid hemorrhage. The occurrence of CSW after neurosurgical procedures has been frequently reported in the pediatric age group; however, it is a rare phenomenon in adults.
