Abstract:
We present a case of a patient with apoplexy due to infarction of a large pituitary macroadenoma. Conservative treatment with steroids resulted in reversal of symptoms and the adenoma involuted. This suggests that medical management may be sufficient therapy in some patients with this complication.
