We present a rare case of transient central diabetes insipidus occurring in the setting of endoscopic sinus surgery, without evidence of structural intracranial/pituitary complications. Other etiologic factors were excluded. Literature review is presented about prior reported cases of diabetes insipidus associated with non-intracranial surgeries.
