  • Title: MRI appearances of an ectopic pituitary adenoma: case report and review of the literature.
    Author: Slonim SM, Haykal HA, Cushing GW, Freidberg SR, Lee AK.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1993; 35(7):546-8. PubMed ID: 8232888.
    Abstract:
    MR images of an ectopic pituitary adenoma have been published in only a single case, a suprasellar mass. We present a patient with Cushing's disease in whom MRI revealed a pituitary adenoma within the sphenoid sinus. Radiologic characteristics of ectopic pituitary adenomas are reviewed, with emphasis on MRI, which demonstrates a soft tissue mass, isointense with gray matter on T1-weighted images, which enhances in a heterogeneous manner.
