Pituitary abscess: an unusual presentation of "aseptic meningitis".

I D Schwartz1, M C Zalles, J L Foster, V F Burry.   

Abstract

Granulomatous inflammation of the pituitary and pituitary abscesses are rare entities. These conditions are found even more rarely in the pediatric aged population. We report a case of a radiographic and clinical, sterile pituitary abscess with non-caseating granulomatous inflammation in a girl who presented with hypopituitarism, meningeal irritation, and symptoms of pituitary apoplexy.
