Clinical
course of IgG4-related hypophysitis presenting with focal seizure and relapsing lymphocytic hypophysitis. Magnetic resonance imaging of the pituitary. a-b T2W and T1W with Gadolinium contrast images on September 17, 2013. MRI scan showed sellar mass abutted to optic chiasm. c-d On September 2, 2014, the patient developed new temporal hemianopia. There was increase contrast enhancement in T1W and increase intensity in T2W at optic chiasm but slightly decreased in size of sellar mass. e-f On January 13, 2015, after treatment of high dose steroid, the sellar mass and intensity in T2W at optic chiasm were markedly decreased

Acute
hypophysitis and hypopituitarism in early syphilitic meningitis in a HIV-infected patient: a case report. NMR scan of enlarged pituitary at diagnosis and after treatment. A. Contrast-enhanced coronal T1-weighted nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) scan of the sella turcica showing pituitary and pituitary stalk enlargement with inhomogeneous contrast enhancement. B. Contrast-enhanced coronal T1-weighted nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) scan of the sella turcica two months after hypophysitis demonstrates normal pituitary size.

Granulomatous
hypophysitis: experience with eight surgical cases of a single center. A coronal T1-weighted image (left) revealed a iso/hypo-intense sellar lesion with a su-prasellar extension. A gadolinium enhanced image (right) demonstrated an enhancing lesion with a hypointense center

Granulomatous
hypophysitis: experience with eight surgical cases of a single center. T1-weighted coronal (left) and sagittal (right) MRI with contrast demonstrated an intra-sellar and suprasellar mass lesion and thickening of the pituitary stalk with ring-like enhancement

Hypophysitis:
Evaluation and Management. Hypophysitis was diagnosed in a 30 year old during the late third trimester of pregnancy. The patient presented with 3 weeks of progression vision loss. Panel a depicts a coronal pre-contrast T1-weighted image of the pituitary. Transsphenoidal biopsy (Panel b) demonstrated lymphocytic hypophysitis and glucocorticoid therapy was begun with prednisone 60 mg daily. Following delivery, the pituitary gland decreased in size (Panel c) and remained stable 2 months (Panel d) and 5 months (Panel e) after glucocorticoid taper and discontinuation
