J M Cabezudo, and R Carrillo, and J Vaquero, and E Areitio, and R Martinez

An intracavernous aneurysm of the left internal carotid artery arose following transsphenoidal surgery in this patient. The pathogenic, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of the case are discussed. Only four other iatrogenic intracavernous carotid aneurysms have been reported previously.

D010911 Pituitary Neoplasms Neoplasms which arise from or metastasize to the PITUITARY GLAND. The majority of pituitary neoplasms are adenomas, which are divided into non-secreting and secreting forms. Hormone producing forms are further classified by the type of hormone they secrete. Pituitary adenomas may also be characterized by their staining properties (see ADENOMA, BASOPHIL; ADENOMA, ACIDOPHIL; and ADENOMA, CHROMOPHOBE). Pituitary tumors may compress adjacent structures, including the HYPOTHALAMUS, several CRANIAL NERVES, and the OPTIC CHIASM. Chiasmal compression may result in bitemporal HEMIANOPSIA.
