MRIsella turcicapituitary adenomaWhilst pituitary adenomas are the commonest cause of a sellar mass, there are a number of other neoplastic, infectious, inflammatory, developmental and vascular aetiologies that should be considered by the radiologist. We discuss and illustrate these lesions and indicate...

An MRI of the brain revealed a sellar and suprasellar cystic mass which was absent on a previous MRI six years earlier. The pre-operative clinical diagnosis was pituitary adenoma vs. craniopharyngioma. Histologically, the fibrous wall of the ciliated epithelial-lined cyst was thickened by non-cas...
The tumor appeared as a well-defined, relatively homogeneously (6) or heterogeneously (1) enhancing suprasellar mass on contrast infusion. Tumor size varied from 1.5 to 6.0 cm (mean ± SD, 3.1±1.6 cm). At surgery, the mass was noted to be firm and vascular, and in at least 3 ...
(f)) MRI of the brain show a parasellar mass lesion. The lesion is isointense on T1-weighted images, iso- to hypointense on T2-weighted images, and inhomogeneously enhanced after contrast injection. (g) Sagittal Gd-enhanced thoracic MRI (lower right) shows a mass lesion with compression ...
They often present with “idiopathic” diabetes insipidus, without evidence of a focal mass lesion on MRI (referred to as “occult neurohypophyseal germinoma”). Suprasellar germinoma may be a delayed diagnosis in patients with idiopathic diabetes insipidus who present with infundibular thickening. ...
In addition, their clinical presentations frequently do not permit a differentiation to be made between mass lesions which should be surgically removed or irradiated and non-mass producing abnormalities which should be medically treated. Furthermore, their clinical manifestations often do not reveal the ...
An MRI revealed a sellar mass measuring 12 mm x 10 mm, consistent with a macroadenoma. Formal testing of both visual acuity and visual fields was normal. She was commenced on bromocriptine, which lowered the PRL to the normal range.Journal of clinical neuroscience: official journal of the ...
