[Hepatic ischemia and hypophyseal macroadenoma]

We report the first case of recurrent hepatitis secondary to a pituitary macroadenoma in a 55-year old man. Liver ischemia is thought to be the main consequence of episodes of acute adrenal insufficiency. Sudden acute adrenal insufficiency was due to enlargement of the sella content secondary to several microhemorrhages in the macroadenoma.
