AI Article Synopsis
- - Sheehan's syndrome can occur after childbirth, leading to issues like inability to lactate and missed menstrual periods (amenorrhea).
- - It can also manifest as varying degrees of hormone deficiency, ranging from isolated hypopituitarism to panhypopituitarism, which affects multiple hormone levels.
- - Recognizing this condition requires careful attention when there's a history of postpartum hemorrhage, as it may indicate underlying hormonal issues.
Article Abstract
Sheehan's syndrome may present with postpartum lactation failure and amenorrhea or with features of isolated hypopituitarism to panhypopituitarism. A high index of suspicion is required in a relevant clinical setting of postpartum hemorrhage.

Morbidities and comorbidities associated with optic nerve hypoplasia and septo-optic-pituitary dysplasia.
Dev Med Child Neurol
January 2025
Department of Community Health Sciences, Max Rady College of Medicine, Rady Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
Aim: To quantify optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) and septo-optic-pituitary dysplasia (SOD) morbidities and comorbidities.
Method: A retrospective population-based study with a case-control design was undertaken using administrative health data from Manitoba, Canada. Cases were 124 patients with ONH or SOD (70 males, 54 females; age range 6 months-36 years 8 months [mean 13 years, SD 7 years 2 months]) diagnosed from 1990 to 2019, matched to 620 unrelated population-based controls (350 males, 270 females; age range 0-36 years 8 months [mean 12 years 5 months, SD 7 years 2 months]) on birth year, sex, and area of residence.
Treatment of rapid recurrence of severe steatosis with combined GLP-1 agonist and growth hormone therapy in a pediatric patient transplanted for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis cirrhosis in the setting of hypopituitarism.
Am J Transplant
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, Department of Pediatrics, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama.
The association between hypopituitarism and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasingly recognized, although data about therapies targeting recurrence post-transplant is limited. An 8-year-old with hypopituitarism-associated MASLD underwent a liver transplant due to rapid progression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Hepatosteatosis recurred within weeks.

Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV), Neurosurgery Service and Gamma Knife Center, Switzerland; University of Lausanne (UNIL), Faculty of Biology and Medicine (FBM), Switzerland; Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL, LTS-5), Switzerland. Electronic address:
Introduction: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is one of the treatment options for the management of residual or recurrent secreting pituitary adenomas (PA). While the role of radiosurgery (RS) by Gamma Knife (GK) has been clearly established, Cyberknife (CK) RS has been evaluated in fewer series.
Material And Methods: To perform a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis, with the aim of focusing on the effect of CK RS on secreting PA.
A Case Report of Recurrent Primary Pituitary Abscess: Challenges in Diagnosis and Treatment.
Endocr Metab Immune Disord Drug Targets
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Primary pituitary abscess is a rare disease with no specific symptoms for pituitary abscess alone. A preoperative diagnosis is quite challenging due to unclear imaging findings.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a patient with a pituitary lesion who presented with hypopituitarism, diabetes insipidus, and visual field defect and was misdiagnosed as a possible cystic pituitary adenoma.
Clinical and genetic features of childhood-onset congenital combined pituitary hormone deficiency: a retrospective, single-center cohort study.
Ann Pediatr Endocrinol Metab
December 2024
Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Children's Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Purpose: To investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic features of childhood-onset congenital combined pituitary hormone deficiency (cCPHD) in Korean patients.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 444 patients diagnosed with childhood-onset CPHD at a tertiary center between 1994 and 2021. After excluding acquired case, 43 patients with cCPHD were enrolled.
