    Author: Paulose KP, Usha R.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 2000 Dec; 48(12):1205-7. PubMed ID: 11280231.
    Abstract:
    A prolactin secreting tumour is the commonest cause of the amenorrhoea-galactorrhoea syndrome. Galactorrhoea is a rare presentation of an empty sella syndrome. The empty sella syndrome commonly presents with headache and visual impairment and occasionally with endocrine disturbances in hypertensive middle aged women. The authors present a case of hyperprolactinemia resulting in galactorrhoea in a middle aged lady associated with a primary empty sella syndrome.
