• Enlarged Sella

  The MR imaging features included a thickened stalk, a diffusely and uniformly enlarged gland, a normal size or minimally enlarged sella, and enhancement of the optic chiasm. Hypophysitis is of two types: lymphocytic and granulomatous. [ajnr.org]

  Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan demonstrated an enlarged sella and a large well-marginated patchily enhancing soft tissue mass within sellar and suprasellar regions. There was no parasellar extension, and no necrosis or hemorrhage. [cancerjournal.net]

OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical features of giant-cell granulomatous hypophysitis and to report on the results of corticosteroid treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Corticosteroids are considered as primary treatment along with desmopressin if patients have DI to avoid traumatic effects of surgery. Surgical treatment is useful for relieving the elevated pressure effects on optic and occulomotor nerve. [jpgo.org]

Diagnosis and Treatment Accurate diagnosis of De Quervian’s thyroiditis is important because, unlike other conditions that cause symptoms of hyperthyroidism, it resolves spontaneously without the need for a specific treatment. [news-medical.net]

It was reasonably assumed, therefore, that this disease has an auto immune etiology. [pituitaryadenomas.com]

In the absence of any evidence of any local or systemic causes of granulomatous inflammation, an immune etiology has to be considered. [cancerjournal.net]

Perhaps this suggests an underlying and unifying autoimmune etiology for both GH and PCNSV with a common target found in both hypophyseal and vascular tissue. [surgicalneurologyint.com]
