Ectopic Growth Hormone-Releasing Adenoma in the Cavernous Sinus : Case Report

概要
- 論文の詳細を見る
A 55-year-old woman presented a rare ectopic pituitary adenoma in the right cavernous sinus manifesting as acromegaly. The tumor was removed via transsphenoidal approach. Intraoperative observation showed the adenoma was located entirely within the right cavernous sinus, and separated from the normal pituitary gland by the medial wall of the cavernous sinus. There was no communication between the tumor and the pituitary. Histological examination showed a growth hormone-releasing adenoma. Including our case, only eight of 86 reported ectopic adenomas have occurred in the cavernous sinus. Such ectopic presentation may be responsible for failed transsphenoidal surgery for endocrinologically active tumors.
