Abstract EN
Objective.
To report the irreversible severe neurological symptoms following the hyponatremic hypertensive syndrome (HHS) in an infant after umbilical arterial catheterization.
Design.
Case report with review of the literature.
Setting.
Neonatal intensive care unit at a tertiary care children's hospital.
Patient.

Conclusions.
In evaluating a neonate with hyponatremia and hypertension, HHS should be considered, especially in case of umbilical arterial catheterization.
In case of diagnostic delay, there is a risk of severe irreversible neurological damage.
