Two patients with suprasellar cysts and hyperprolactinemia are described. These lesions were diagnosed by CT metrizamide cisternography. Suprasellar cysts are a rare cause of pathologic hyperprolactinemia, which most commonly results from pituitary adenomas. Tissue diagnosis revealed suprasellar arachnoid cysts in the first patient and Rathke's cleft cyst in the second. The differential diagnosis of suprasellar cysts is presented, and distinguishing radiographic characteristics are discussed.
本文描述了两名患有鞍上囊肿和高催乳素血症的患者。这些病变通过CT甲泛葡胺脑池造影得以诊断。鞍上囊肿是病理性高催乳素血症的罕见病因,高催乳素血症最常见的病因是垂体腺瘤。组织诊断显示,第一例患者为鞍上蛛网膜囊肿,第二例为拉克氏裂囊肿。文中介绍了鞍上囊肿的鉴别诊断,并讨论了其显著的影像学特征。
