Core Tip |
Lymphocytic hypophysitis (LYH) is an important condition to consider in the differential diagnosis of patients with a pituitary mass, and headache is a frequent complaint of patients with LYH. We present a patient with LYH whose initial symptom was headache and who presented with repeatedly worsening and prolonged headaches three times even though the hypopituitarism was fully resolved after glucocorticoid treatment. This rare headache regression suggests that the cause of headaches in patients with LYH may not be exclusively due to the pituitary mass effect and that patients with chronic headaches should also be alerted to the possibility of LYH. |
