  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We reported a rare case of primary pituitary abscess.

A 53-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with headache and visual field defect. CT and MRI de-monstrated an intrasellar cystic mass and suprasellar solid mass. Intrasellar cystic mass had peripheral en-hancement. Suprasellar solid mass had homogeneous enhancement.

Transsphenoidal surgery was performed. A purulent material was aspirated from the intrasellar region. His-tological examination of the purulent material revealed an infiltration of inflammatory cells and pituitary cells. There were no tumor components or epithelium.

The postoperative course was uneventful. The pa-tient was discharged from our hospital without neurolo-gical deficits. Two years after surgery, she still has no neurological deficits and no recurrence of intra-and sup-rasellar mass on MR image.
