Abstract

Sellar masses are associated most commonly with pituitary adenomas. Many other neoplastic, inflammatory, infectious, and vascular lesions, however, may affect the sellar region and mimic pituitary tumors. These lesions must be considered in a differential diagnosis. This article describes the characteristics of rare sellar masses that provide clues to their differential diagnosis.

摘要

鞍区肿物最常与垂体腺瘤相关。然而，许多其他肿瘤性、炎症性、感染性和血管性病变也可能累及鞍区并酷似垂体肿瘤。在鉴别诊断中必须考虑这些病变。本文描述了罕见鞍区肿物的特征，这些特征为其鉴别诊断提供了线索。
