  • Title: Lymphocytic hypophysitis in a 43-year-old woman.
    Author: Steup-Beekman GM, Zweers EJ.
    Journal: Neth J Med; 1998 Aug; 53(2):76-9. PubMed ID: 9766156.
    Abstract:
    A woman with sarcoidosis and primary hypothyroidism presented with partial hypopituitarism without pituitary gland enlargement. A clinical diagnosis of lymphocytic hypophysitis was established after exclusion of other possibilities, since a definitive diagnosis can only be made after histological studies. This rare form of chronic inflammation and destruction of the anterior pituitary gland is discussed.
