A case of granulomatous hypophysitis with hypopituitarism and minimal pituitary enlargement.

P Hassoun, E Anayssi, I Salti.   

Abstract

A case of hypopituitarism and minimal sellar enlargement was found at hypophysectomy to have a giant cell granuloma of the pituitary. The clinical and histopathological features of this rare entity are reviewed. It is proposed that hypopituitarism which is out of proportion to minimal sellar enlargement may be a suggestive clue to the preoperative diagnosis of giant cell granulous which normally simulates a pituitary tumour.
