introduction: the co-existence of pituitary adenoma and meningioma is extremely rare. it is even rarer in patients with no previous known risk factors for either tumour. here, we present a case of synchronous non-functioning pituitary adenoma with suprasellar and olfactory groove meningiomas in a patient without previous irradiation. methods: the tumours were diagnosed on mri in the 65-year-old...

background and importance: the coexistence of pituitary adenoma and another type of brain tumor is a very rare clinical scenario. even though such a presentation can be an incidental event but the possible pathogenesis of coexistence of different lesions in the sella and suprasellar region has not yet been elucidated. case presentation: two cases of concomitant sellar and suprasellar region tum...

Demyelinating optic neuritis is the commonest cause of optic neuropathy in young adults. Retrobulbar optic neuritis is one of the frequent clinical forms of demyelinating optic neuritis. We report a case of a 28-year-old lady who presented with blurring of vision in the right eye for one month and pain on eye movement. Fundi examinations were normal. Initial suspicion was that of retrobulbar op...

Coexistence of pituitary adenoma (PA) and another type of brain tumor is a very rare clinical scenario. Even though such a presentation can be an incidental event but a thorough review of the literature will be made to elucidate the possible mechanisms and treatment options in similar cases. Two cases of concomitant sellar and suprasellar/diaphragmatic tumors are reported. A 37-year-old lady wi...

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is an idiopathic histiocytic proliferation affecting the lymph nodes. Isolated intracranial RDD is rare and usually appears as a well-defined, dural-based lesion without lymphadenopathy. The clinical and radiological features of intracranial RDD are similar to meningioma. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry are essential for a definitive diagnosis. This is a repo...
