  • Title: Congenital Hypopituitarism.
    Author: Parks JS.
    Journal: Clin Perinatol; 2018 Mar; 45(1):75-91. PubMed ID: 29406008.
    Abstract:
    Mutations of growth hormone genes and pituitary transcription factors account for a small proportion of cases of severe congenital hypopituitarism. Most cases show characteristic MRI findings of pituitary stalk interruption syndrome. Clinical suspicion should prompt assessment of cortisol, free T4, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and growth hormone levels together with MRI of the hypothalamic and pituitary regions.
