Pituitary calcification masquerading as pituitary apoplexy

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Pituitary calcification occurs commonly in lactotroph or somatotroph adenoma but rare in chomophobe or gonadotroph adenoma. On imaging, it can mimic hemorrhage, hence may masquerade pituitary apoplexy if patient present with neurological manifestations. We present a case of pituitary calcification which mimicked pituitary apoplexy.

Aromatase cytochrome P450 enzyme expression in human pituitary

open access: yes, 2008
Aromatase (P450AROM) converts testosterone to estrogen. This conversion could be important in normal physiology and estradiol-induced tumorigenesis in human pituitary.

IgG4-Related Inflammatory Pseudotumor Involving the Clivus: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
IgG4-related inflammatory pseudotumors are very uncommon and are characterized histologically by the presence of inflammatory swellings with increasing IgG4-positive plasma cells and lymphocytes infiltrating the tissues.

The 'incidentaloma' of the pituitary gland. Is neurosurgery required? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We describe a series of 18 patients with an intrasellar mass incidentally discovered by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. The average size of the mass was 13 mm, with a range from 5 to 25 mm.

Cisternostomy in Subarachnoid Space for Symptomatic Rathke's Cleft Cyst

open access: yesNeurologia Medico-Chirurgica
At our hospital, the initial surgical treatment of Rathke's cleft cysts is simple drainage and wall biopsy by opening the cyst. If intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurs, subarachnoid space cisternostomy is added to prevent reaccumulation of ...

A Recessive Mutation Resulting in a Disabling Amino Acid Substitution (T194R) in the LHX3 Homeodomain Causes Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background/Aims: Recessive mutations in the LHX3 homeodomain transcription factor gene are associated with developmental disorders affecting the pituitary and nervous system. We describe pediatric patients with combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD)

Inflammation-induced Gro1 triggers senescence in neuronal progenitors: effects of estradiol

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background Inflammation has been proposed to contribute to the decline in adult hippocampal neurogenesis. Proinflammatory cytokines activate transcription of chemokine growth-regulated oncogene α (Gro1) in human and murine hippocampal neuronal progenitor
