    Author: Ding D, Mehta GU, Liu KC.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2014 Apr; 28(2):290-2. PubMed ID: 23944707.
    Abstract:
    A 59-year-old female presented with headache and fatigue. Angiography revealed a giant superior hypophyseal aneurysm with intrasellar extension. Serum endocrine panel demonstrated pituitary insufficiency. The aneurysm was treated with a pipeline flow-diverting stent and the hypopituitarism was treated with hormone replacement. Pituitary insufficiency from aneurysmal compression is extremely rare.
