    Author: Kashiwagi N, Fujita N, Hirabuki N, Tanaka H, Sato T, Sato M, Nakamura H.
    Journal: Acta Radiol; 1998 Sep; 39(5):490-3. PubMed ID: 9755696.
    Abstract:
    We present MR findings in 3 surgically proved cases of pituitary abscess. All lesions were seen as a sellar cystic mass with a thin rim of enhancement. In addition, the pituitary stalk was thickened in 2 cases in which central diabetes insipidus developed. These findings may be suggestive of pituitary abscess.
