Abstract

Two cases of hypothyroidism with computed tomographic evidence of enlargement of the pituitary gland are reported; in both the enlargement disappeared after treatment. These findings are in agreement with the previously reported observation that an increase of TSH production in primary hypothyroidism may lead to pituitary hyperplasia.
