Özet

Psychogenic diabetes insipidus is commonly seen in adolescents but very rarely reported in toddlers. We report three toddlers who presented to our clinic with compulsive drinking behavior and polyuria. Laboratory work-up and water deprivation tests were consistent with psychogenic diabetes insipidus.
