Gestational diabetes insipidus, HELLP syndrome and eclampsia in a twin pregnancy: a case report.

Abstract
We report a case of eclampsia in a twin pregnancy complicated by HELLP syndrome and diabetes insipidus. This confluence of disease processes suggests that a modification of common magnesium sulfate treatment protocols may be appropriate in a certain subset of patients.
