  • Title: Triad of hypopituitarism, granulomatous hypophysitis, and ruptured Rathke's cleft cyst.
    Author: Albini CH, MacGillivray MH, Fisher JE, Voorhess ML, Klein DM.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 1988 Jan; 22(1 Pt 1):133-6. PubMed ID: 3344071.
    Abstract:
    A 19-year-old girl with pituitary insufficiency and a large sella turcica was found to have granulomatous hypophysitis in association with a Rathke's cleft cyst. We think that the inflammatory process represents a foreign body reaction to leakage of cyst contents, with destruction of pituitary tissue.
