Core Tip

Core Tip: In this case, a pediatric patient with congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus harbored a mutation in the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) gene at a new locus. In addition, the diarrhea observed in this case is likely related to the novel AVPR2 gene mutation. Therefore, the description of new mutations and new manifestations are crucial to complement the clinical deficiencies in the diagnosis of the disease. We report a case harboring an AVPR2 gene mutation at a new locus and a new clinical manifestation.
