  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A rare case of pituitary apoplexy following mild head trauma is reported. A 56-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for loss of consciousness fol-lowing a traffic accident. Magnetic resonance (MR) im-aging showed a large suprasellar tumor containing a low intensity area on the T1-, T2-weighted images and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) im-age. These findings indicated fresh intratumoral hem-orrhage.

The tumor extended to the suprasellar region and put pressure on the hypothalamus and brain stem.
