Lymphocytic hypophysitis is a rare condition reported to occur only in women. A patient with amenorrhea and hyperprolactinemia was thought to have a pituitary microadenoma but was subsequently found to have lymphocytic hypophysitis and pituitary-specific autoantibodies. Photomicrographs taken upon transsphenoidal surgical exploration revealed the lymphohistiocytic infiltrate of the pituitary. The pituitary reserve was tested. Autoimmune hypophysitis should be included in the differential diagnosis of amenorrhea and galactorrhea.
淋巴细胞性垂体炎是一种仅在女性中报道的罕见病症。一名患有闭经和高催乳素血症的患者最初被认为患有垂体微腺瘤，但随后发现患有淋巴细胞性垂体炎和垂体特异性自身抗体。经蝶窦手术探查时拍摄的显微照片显示垂体有淋巴细胞-组织细胞浸润。对垂体储备功能进行了检测。自身免疫性垂体炎应纳入闭经和溢乳的鉴别诊断中。
