Pituitary apoplexy is a rare event in which the pituitary gland undergoes infarction or haemorrhage, most commonly in the setting of an underlying tumour. We report on apoplexy of an undiagnosed pituitary adenoma precipitated both by physiological enlargement of the pituitary in pregnancy and prophylactic anticoagulation from a history of deep vein thrombosis. The haemorrhage was managed conservatively without significant complications.
垂体卒中是一种罕见的情况,即垂体发生梗死或出血,最常见于存在潜在肿瘤的背景下。我们报告了一例未诊断出的垂体腺瘤发生卒中的病例,其由孕期垂体生理性增大以及既往有深静脉血栓形成病史而进行的预防性抗凝治疗共同诱发。出血采用保守治疗,未出现严重并发症。
