Squeezing the Pituitary Gland [PDF]
A 74-yr-old female presented with a 1-yr history of tiredness, dizziness, vomiting, reduced appetite, and 9 kg of weight loss. There was no history of headache, polydipsia, or polyuria. Perimetry revealed no abnormalities. Endocrine studies showed anterior pituitary failure: TSH, 1.53 mU/liter (ref. 0.30 – 4.20); serum T4, 8.4 pmol/liter (ref. 12.0 –24.
