    Area of Science:

    • Neuroimaging
    • Endocrinology
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Empty sella is a condition where the pituitary gland is not fully developed within the sella turcica.
    • It can be primary (idiopathic) or secondary to other conditions.
    • Understanding its features and complications is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze clinical and radiological features of empty sella.
    • To identify complications and diagnostic warning signs.
    • To review surgical treatment indications and outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 55 patients with empty sella over five years.
    • Evaluation of clinical presentation and radiological findings.
    • Review of surgical interventions and their results.

    Main Results:

    • Identification of specific clinical and radiological markers for classification.
    • Discussion of common and severe complications associated with empty sella.
    • Analysis of diagnostic warning signs for timely intervention.

    Conclusions:

    • Accurate classification of empty sella relies on specific clinical and radiological features.
    • Early recognition of warning signs can prevent serious complications.
    • Surgical treatment has defined indications and variable outcomes.
