Giant cell tumour of the sphenoid bone with coincidental galactorrhoea--a case report.

A A Kemeny1, F Afshar.   

Abstract

A case of the rare giant cell tumour involving the sphenoid bone is reported. The usual presentation of these tumours is headache and cranial nerve deficits. This 25-year-old lady presented with oligomenorrhoea and galactorrhoea. Investigations demonstrated an asymptomatic erosive mass lesion in the sphenoid with suprasellar extension and extension into the nasopharynx. The tumour was partially resected via the transphenoidal route. The differential diagnosis and treatment of these lesions are discussed.
