A case of a destructive lesion of sphenoidal sinus.

This interesting case deals with the possible origin of pituitary tumor from cell rests located outside the pituitary gland. In the present case we found an elderly lady presenting with a suspected mass lesion of the sphenoidal sinus, clinically suspected to be either an infective granuloma or a chordoma which finally turned out to be an adenoma of the pituitary gland.
