Granular cell tumor of the pituitary gland associated with diabetes insipidus.

L B Schlachter, G T Tindall, G S Pearl.   

Abstract

A hypophysectomy was performed for palliation of metastatic carcinoma of the breast in a 62-year-old woman who also had diabetes insipidus. At operation a neurohypophyseal mass was discovered; it proved to be a granular cell tumor. The diabetes insipidus resolved postoperatively.
