The prenatal pituitary gland--hidden and forgotten.

I Kjaer1, B F Hansen.   

Abstract

The sella turcica and pituitary gland in a human fetus (18 weeks gestation) with unilateral oro-ocular cleft combined with unilateral cleft lip and palate are described histologically. In this fetus the sella turcica was not a normal sella but a caudally open funnel. The adenopituitary gland tissue was positioned ectopically within the funnel canal and in the pharyngeal submucosa.
