ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Empty sella syndrome is sometimes associated with anterior pituitary insufficiency, the latter being mostly partial or dissociated. EXEGESIS We report a case of a profound panhypopituitarism revealing an empty sella syndrome. This case shows that empty sella syndrome, although a generally benign and asymptomatic condition, can be associated with hypopituitarism.CONCLUSION:
In case of empty sella syndrome, especially if an endocrine dysfunction is clinically suspected, minimal hormonal analysis must be requested.
