[Intrasellar arachnoid cyst: a case report].
Intrasellar arachnoid cyst is very rare. We report a case of intrasellar arachnoid cyst. A 44-year-old male was admitted for evaluation of his headache and visual disturbance on August 6, 1993. Neurological examination revealed bilateral decreased visual acuity and visual field defect. Endocrinological examination showed panhypopituitarism. Other neurological findings were normal. X-ray film of...
متن کاملCase Report Primary intrasellar melanotic ependymoma successfully treated by combined transsphenoidal and gamma knife surgeries: case report and review
Ependymoma accounts for 6-12% of all intracranial tumors, but only 6 cases of melanotic ependymoma have been reported. Sellar ependymomas are also extremely rare, with only 5 cases reported in the pituitary fossa. A 26-year-old man presented with an extremely rare case of primary intrasellar melanotic ependymoma manifesting as consistent frontalgia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a sellar le...

On admission, bitemporal hemianopsia and panhypopituitarism were revealed. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a homogeneous low density area in the sellar region. The margin of the low...
متن کاملIntrasellar Chondroid Chordoma: A Case Report
Chordomas are tumors derived from cells that are remnants of the notochord, particularly from its proximal and distal extremes, they are mainly midline and represent approximately 1% of all malignant bone tumors and 0.1 to 0.2% of intracranial neoplasms. Chordomas involving the sellar region are rare. Herein, we describe a 57-year-old male patient presenting with a history of retro-orbital head...

Intracranial "kissing" carotid arteries are a rare variant of the carotid arteries, where both internal carotid arteries deviate medially and touch each other near the midline within the sphenoid sinus or the sphenoid bone, including the sella. This anomaly is particularly important since it may cause or mimic pituitary disease and also may complicate transsphenoidal surgery. We report a rare c...
