Abstract:
Pituitary apoplexy is a rare disease followed by ischemic or hemorrhagic process within the pituitary adenoma.

Our aim is to share our experience and discuss these cases as follows: the first one to know the compression of basilar artery along with the compression of basilar part of pons and in both the cases with compression of an internal carotid artery leading to cerebral infarcts.
