Etiology and pathogenesis of empty cella syndrome remains undetermined in some cases (primary or idiopathic type), while in others it is related to treatment of pituitary and parasellar disease (secondary type). Ten patients with empty sellae, secondary to treatment of pituitary adenomas (five cases), granulomas (three cases), craniopharyngioma (one case), and optic glioma (one case) are presented. Pathogenesis of empty sella is discussed and the importance of neuroradiologic evaluation of this syndrome is stressed.
在某些情况下（原发性或特发性类型），空蝶鞍综合征的病因和发病机制仍未明确，而在其他情况下，它与垂体及鞍旁疾病的治疗有关（继发性类型）。本文报告了10例空蝶鞍患者，其继发于垂体腺瘤（5例）、肉芽肿（3例）、颅咽管瘤（1例）和视神经胶质瘤（1例）的治疗。讨论了空蝶鞍的发病机制，并强调了该综合征神经放射学评估的重要性。
