pituitary gland metastasis was seen in elderly patients, and the incidence of pituitary metastasis is 1% to 4% of all cancer patients. renal cell carcinoma is a primary malignancy in only 2.6% of pituitary metastases. we reported a 50-year-old man with pituitary metastasis from renal cell carcinoma that had signs of diabetes insipidus. he had multiple lesions in both lungs, and bone scan involv...

Metastasis from breast cancer to other parts of the body is very common, but the spread of the tumor to pituitary gland, especially to infandibulum, is a rare presentation. At the time of pituitary metastasis, a majority of the patients have clinical and radiological evidence of the disease. It seems that the posterior area of the gland is the most common site of metastasis, probably due to hig...

A 74-year-old male was presented weakness, fatigue, and decreased appetite. patient diagnosed secondary adrenal insufficiencies.

Metastasis to the pituitary gland and iris is rarely seen in cancer patients. Breast cancer and lung cancer are the most common tumors that metastasize to these sites. Most lung cancer patients have non-small cell lung cancer and metastasis of small cell lung cancer to the pituitary gland and iris have been very rarely reported in the literature. Here we present a case of iris metastasis and pi...

The diagnosis of pituitary carcinoma cannot be made easily histologically, and most cases of pituitary carcinoma are diagnosed only after the clinical detection of metastasis. Distant metastasis of pituitary tumor occurs in 0.1% to 0.2% of cases and has been reported in the liver, bone and central nervous system, with only one case of metastasis to the cauda equine reported. This study describe...

UNLABELLED Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare clinical condition, which is usually caused by neurohypophyseal or pituitary stalk infiltration in cancer patients. CASE REPORT we present a 62-year old metastatic breast cancer woman with DI. She admitted to the hospital because of nausea, vomiting, polyuria and polydipsia, while she was on no cytotoxic medication. She had no electrolyte imbalance...

Tumors in general metastasizing to the pituitary gland and skull base are a rare occurrence, comprising of 1-3% of all pituitary masses [1]. Moreover, breast and lung tumors are the commonest primary malignancies that result in pituitary gland metastasis, with a pituitary mass often being the first manifestation of an occult primary tumor [2]. HCC is a frequently occurring malignancy usually ma...

RATIONALE Melanoma metastases to the pituitary adenoma (MMPA) are extremely rare, with only 1 reported case. To date, the melanoma metastasis to the existing prolactinoma has not been reported in literatures. PATIENT CONCERNS We report a case of 62-year-old woman presented with progressive visual disturbance and hyperprolactinemia. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the presence of a rou...
