    Lymphocytic hypophysitis, a rare pregnancy complication, presents as a pituitary mass during late pregnancy or postpartum. This case highlights CT findings and biopsy confirmation of this condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Reproductive Medicine
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Lymphocytic hypophysitis is an uncommon inflammatory condition affecting the anterior pituitary gland.
    • It is a rare complication associated with pregnancy, with limited documented cases.

    Observation:

    • Symptoms typically manifest in the third trimester of pregnancy or the early postpartum period.
    • Radiological imaging, such as CT scans, may reveal an expanding sellar mass with potential suprasellar extension.

    Findings:

    • This study details a specific case with computed tomography (CT) evidence of a pituitary mass detected two weeks after delivery.
    • Histopathological examination via biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of lymphocytic hypophysitis.

    Implications:

    • Early recognition and diagnosis are crucial for appropriate management of lymphocytic hypophysitis.
    • Understanding the radiological and pathological features aids in differentiating this condition from other sellar masses.
