|January 1, 1987
Abstract:
Pituitary apoplexy is an acute neurologic emergency typically occurring in patients who suffer rapid and fatal expansion of a pre-existing adenoma. We report an example of pituitary apoplexy secondary to necrotizing hypophysitis due to a mycobacterial or tuberculous infection with limited systemic infection.
