Ectopic Intrasphenoidal Growth Hormone Releasing Pituitary Adenoma Associated with an Intracranial Aneurysm.

Pituitary adenomas are a type of of the most frequent intracranial tumors. These tumors can extend outside the sella, but very rarely originate ectopically to the sellar region. A 71-year-old patient presented to our institution, with prior clinical history of noncontrolled arterial hypertension and new-onset high-intensity pulsatile headache.

Resting state networks in patients with acute disorders of consciousness after severe traumatic brain injury.

Objectives: This study aims to describe resting state networks (RSN) in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC)s after acute severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Methods: Adult patients with TBI with a GCS score <8 who remained in a coma, minimally conscious state (MCS), or unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS), between 2017 and 2020 were included. Blood-oxygen-level dependent imaging was performed to compare their RSN with 10 healthy volunteers.
