Abstract
History A 32-year-old woman presented to an ophthalmologist for bilateral blurry vision. She underwent MRI of the brain and orbits, which showed a focal abnormality within the pituitary gland. The patient was referred to an endocrinologist for further evaluation. Review of systems and physical examination by the endocrinologist revealed no symptoms or signs of endocrine dysfunction. Anterior pituitary hormone levels, including growth hormone, prolactin, thyroid stimulating hormone, follicular stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and adrenocorticotropic hormone, were normal. Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of the sella and pituitary gland (Figs 1-3) and subsequent CT of the anterior skull base (Figs 4, 5) were performed.
