Paraneoplastic syndromes are defined by symptoms or signs resulting from damage to organs or tissues that are remote from the site of malignant neoplasms or its metastasis. They are due to tumor secre...
Hypophysitis is considered a rare inflammatory disease of the pituitary gland. For a long time, primary autoimmune hypophysitis has stood out as the most relevant type of hypophysitis. However, with t...
In this review, we discuss the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hypophysitis with a focus on recent data and highlight subtypes of particular interest while recognizing the gaps in knowledge ...
Regardless of cause, symptoms and signs of hypophysitis may be related to mass effect (headache and visual disturbance) and hormonal disruption that warrant prompt evaluation. In the vast majority of ...
Although subtle differences currently exist in management and outcome expectations between primary and secondary causes of hypophysitis, universally, treatment is aimed at symptom management and hormo...
Autoimmune hypothalamitis is a very rare neuroendocrine disorder that causes central diabetes insipidus, headache, visual impairment, and sometimes cognitive impairment. Autoimmune hypothalamitis may ...
A 52-year-old woman developed autoimmune hypothalamitis 7 years after developing central diabetes insipidus due to lymphocytic hypophysitis, resulting in severe memory impairment. High-dose intravenou...
This case presented a unique clinical course, with a long period of time between the onset of autoimmune hypopituitaritis and the development of autoimmune hypothalamitis....
IgG4-related hypophysitis (IgG4-RH) is a rare chronic inflammatory condition of the pituitary gland. This study reports the presentation, management and outcomes for patients with histologically prove...
A prospectively maintained electronic database was searched over a 14-year period from 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2020 at a single academic centre to identify all patients with a histological diagn...
A total of 8 patients (5 male) with a median age of 51 years were identified. The most common presenting symptoms were headache (4/8; 50%), fatigue (3/8; 37.5%) and visual impairment (2/8; 25%). Three...
IgG4-RH is an increasingly recognised entity presenting with a variety of symptoms and signs. Clinical presentation is similar to other forms of hypophysitis. It is therefore important to consider IgG...
Granulomatous hypophysitis is a rare inflammatory condition of the pituitary gland with an imaging appearance that can overlap with that of pituitary adenoma. Differentiating the two before surgical r...
We present 3 cases, initially thought to be pituitary adenomas, that were pathology-proved granulomatous hypophysitis. The preoperative MR images were reviewed for diffuse, enhancing infrasellar basis...
All 3 cases of granulomatous hypophysitis had diffuse enhancing infrasellar basisphenoid bone marrow. Conversely, this was not seen in any of the 100 pituitary adenomas. The patients with granulomatou...
We present 3 cases of granulomatous hypophysitis with diffuse enhancement of the infrasellar basisphenoid bone marrow that was not seen in our 100 cases of pituitary adenomas. This imaging feature may...
IgG4-related diseases are very uncommon, and its diagnosis and treatment are complicated as it encompasses multiple disciplines....
A 77-year-old woman was admitted with a jaw mass and nausea and vomiting. Laboratory tests showed elevated serum IgG4, pituitary MRI suggested thickening of the pituitary stalk, and head and neck CT s...
Mikulicz's disease combined with IgG4-related hypophysitis is a rare case of IgG4-RD in elderly women. IgG4-RD is one of the causes of head and neck exocrine gland mass and pituitary stalk thickening ...
Lymphocytic hypophysitis (LYH) is a rare chronic inflammatory disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the anterior or posterior pituitary gland and hypothalamus. LYH is subdivided into ly...
Some patients develop immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related hypophysitis associated with systemic diseases. More than 30 cases of IgG4-related hypophysitis have been reported. However, biopsy has rarely be...
A 56-year-old Japanese man arrived at the hospital with visual impairment, bitemporal hemianopia, and right abducens nerve palsy. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed pituitary body and stalk swelling ...
This is the first reported case of IgG4-related hypophysitis with PitNET. Although no pathological findings indicating a relationship between the two conditions were found, we were able to preoperativ...
The term hypophysitis is used to designate a heterogeneous group of pituitary conditions characterized by the presence of inflammatory infiltration of the adenohypophysis, neurohypophysis, or both. Al...
Pituitary inflammation due to IgG4-related disease is a rare condition and is sometimes accompanied by central diabetes insipidus. Central diabetes insipidus produces a strong thirst sensation, which ...
