Anterior pituitary insufficiency developed over 15 years in a man who had had a sudden episode of left hemiparesis and slurred speech at the age of 45 years. At age 60 radiographic studies revealed no evidence of a sellar or suprasellar neoplasm, and endocrinologic studies, including stimulation with thyrotropin releasing hormone and luteinizing hormone releasing hormone, yielded results consistent with hypopituitarism of hypothalamic origin. Response to thyroid, adrenocortical and testosterone therapy was good.
一名45岁时曾突发左半身轻瘫和言语不清的男性，在15年的时间里逐渐出现垂体前叶功能减退。60岁时，影像学检查未发现蝶鞍或鞍上肿瘤的迹象，包括促甲状腺激素释放激素和促黄体生成素释放激素刺激试验在内的内分泌学检查结果与下丘脑源性垂体功能减退相符。对甲状腺、肾上腺皮质和睾酮治疗反应良好。
