    Summary

    Neonatal hypopituitarism, a condition of the pituitary gland, may be linked to neonatal hepatitis. This study describes two infants with both conditions, suggesting a potential relationship.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Endocrinology
    • Neonatal Medicine
    • Hepatology

    Background:

    • Pituitary aplasia or hypoplasia is observed in infants with anencephaly and normocephaly.
    • Hypopituitarism in infants presents significant diagnostic challenges.

    Observation:

    • Two infants diagnosed with hypopituitarism are presented.
    • Both infants exhibited clear clinical and histological signs of neonatal hepatitis syndrome.

    Findings:

    • The clinical presentation and histological findings in these two cases suggest a potential association between neonatal hypopituitarism and hepatitis.
    • The co-occurrence of these conditions may indicate a shared underlying etiology or pathway.

    Implications:

    • Further research is warranted to explore the potential relationship between neonatal hypopituitarism and hepatitis.
