Pituitary abscess: an unexpected diagnosis.

Anatoly Shuster1, Thorsteinn Gunnarsson, Doron Sommer, Elka Miller.   

Abstract

The pituitary gland can demonstrate a variety of pathologies with different clinical presentations. Amongst them, pituitary abscess is a rare infectious disease for which contrast-enhanced MRI aids the diagnostic pathway. We present a 16-year-old girl with imaging and surgical findings consistent with primary pituitary abscess.
