Sella turcica: an anatomical, endocrinological, and historical perspective

, 2015
The sphenoid bone has a superior depression called the sella turcica, Latin for "Turkish saddle," where the pituitary gland is found. The availability of modern radiological imaging techniques has replaced plain radiography of the sella turcica in the ...

Sella turcica-Its importance in orthodontics and craniofacial morphology

Dental Research Journal, 2013
The sella turcica is a structure which can be readily seen on lateral cephalometric radiographs and sella point is routinely traced for various cephalometric analyses.

The cranial, mandibular, and hyoid anatomy of softshell turtles (Trionychidae): A revised character list for phylogenetic analysis

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2790-2837, October 2026.
Abstract Softshell turtles (Pan‐Trionychidae) are an early branching clade of hidden‐necked turtles (Cryptodira) with a rich fossil record extending back to the Early Cretaceous. The evolutionary history of softshell turtles is still unresolved because of their conservative morphology combined with high levels of polymorphism related to morphological ...

Evaluation of sella turcica types with two different classifications in cone-beam computed tomography

, 2023
Introduction: Sella turcica is a saddle-shaped depression in the sphenoid bone that contains the pituitary gland. Objectives: To investigate the morphological types of sella turcica with two different classifications in conebeam computed tomography (CBCT)

Refractory Pericardial Effusion Secondary to Central Hypothyroidism due to Empty Sella Syndrome: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Refractory pericardial effusion with a low free T4 but inappropriately normal TSH should prompt evaluation for central hypothyroidism, including pituitary MRI to identify treatable causes such as empty sella syndrome. Glucocorticoid cover must precede levothyroxine to prevent adrenal crisis in patients with possible hypopituitarism.

Challenges in Diagnosing Central Adrenal Insufficiency in Children: Cortisol‐Stimulating Tests are Safe and Often Required

Clinical Endocrinology, Volume 105, Issue 4, Page 408-415, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The accuracy and safety of cortisol‐stimulating tests (CSTs) for assessing hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis integrity, including the diagnosis of central adrenal insufficiency (CAI), in children remain uncertain. Although these tests can simultaneously evaluate cortisol and growth hormone secretion, the present study ...

Evaluation of the relationship between sella turcica interclinoid process distances and malocclusions using cone-beam computed tomography – A retrospective study

SRM Journal of Research in Dental Sciences
Background: Sella Turcica is a key landmark for determining craniofacial growth and skeletal malocclusions. Any changes in morphology might have a consequence leading to an orthodontic outcome.

Chordoma in the sella turcica

Pulse, 1970
A chordoma is a slow-growing malignant tumour with a metastatic potential developing from notochord remnants. The incidence is about 1 % of all malignant bone tumours with a male to female ration of 1 : 1. Most patients are in their fifth to seventh decades but patients presenting with skull or vertebral tumours are younger. Chordomas have a protracted

Suprasellar Desmoplastic Infantile Ganglioglioma in a 7‐Month‐Old Infant: A Rare Diagnostic Consideration in Infant Suprasellar Masses

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma should be considered when an infant presents with a suprasellar mass, nystagmus, and developmental delay. Deep midline location limits resection, so BRAF V600E testing matters: it can open a targeted treatment option when surgery cannot control the disease.
