  • Title: Hypopituitarism resulting from an intrasellar carotid aneurysm.
    Author: Ooi TC, Russell NA.
    Journal: Can J Neurol Sci; 1986 Feb; 13(1):70-1. PubMed ID: 3955456.
    Abstract:
    We report a 74 year old lady who presented with an exceedingly rare combination of an internal carotid artery aneurysm which was almost entirely intrasellar and associated with hypopituitarism but no neurological deficits. Such a lesion could be misdiagnosed as a pituitary tumour with serious consequences, if surgery is attempted without prior carotid angiography.
