INTRODUCTION: This meta-analysis was performed to analyze the clinical presentation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics, and the management of lymphocytic hypophysitis (LYH).
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Four different databases were searched from January 2010 to December 2020, two researchers independently conducted literature screening, data extraction, and quality evaluation. We used a random effects meta-analysis to calculate summary relative risks with 95% CI.
RESULTS: This meta-analysis showed that the percentage of women among LYH patients was 78%. LYH was associated with pregnancy in 15% of female patients, with headache (49%) and symptoms of central diabetes insipidus (CDI) (45%) being the most frequent presentation. In 24% of LYH patients, there was an association with another autoimmune disease. The incidence of secondary hypogonadism, secondary hypoadrenalism, secondary hypothyroidism, and growth hormone deficit was 54%, 49%, 43%, and 22%, respectively. Pituitary contrast enhancement (63%), symmetrical pituitary enlargement (60%), thickening of the pituitary stalk (58%), sella mass or suprasellar extension (58%), and loss of posterior pituitary hyperintensity (50%) were typical MRI findings. Regarding LYH treatment, the percentage of patients who had observation or hormone replacement, steroid therapy, and surgery was 43%, 36%, and 34%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: It is of great significance to fully understand the clinical characteristics of lymphocytic hypophysitis, reduce missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis, avoid unnecessary surgery and maintain normal pituitary function.
