    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Empty sella syndrome can be idiopathic or secondary to treatments for pituitary and parasellar diseases. This study presents ten cases of secondary empty sella, highlighting the need for neuroradiologic evaluation.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroendocrinology
    • Neuroradiology
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Empty sella syndrome (ESS) is a condition where the sella turcica is partially or completely filled with cerebrospinal fluid.
    • Its etiology is often unknown (primary ESS) or linked to treatments for sellar and parasellar pathologies (secondary ESS).

    Observation:

    • This study details ten patients with secondary ESS.
    • Causes included treatment for pituitary adenomas (5), granulomas (3), craniopharyngioma (1), and optic glioma (1).

    Findings:

    • The pathogenesis of secondary ESS was explored in relation to prior treatments.
    • Neuroradiologic imaging is crucial for diagnosing and understanding ESS.

    Implications:

    • Understanding the secondary causes of ESS is vital for clinical management.
  • Emphasizes the role of advanced imaging in diagnosing sellar region abnormalities.
