T1-weighted MR images showed a thickened pituitary stalk and absence of the normal high intensity of the posterior pituitary lobe. Dynamic imaging demonstrated poor enhancement in the posterior lobe, whereas the anterior lobe was strongly enhanced. Autopsy revealed that metastatic tumo...

متن کاملFactors Associated with Postoperative Diabetes Insipidus after Pituitary Surgery
BACKGROUND Determining risk factors for diabetes insipidus (DI) after pituitary surgery is important in improving patient care. Our objective is to determine the factors associated with DI after pituitary surgery. METHODS We reviewed records of patients who underwent pituitary surgery from 2011 to 2015 at Philippine General Hospital. Patients with preoperative DI were excluded. Multiple logis...
