PURPOSE: Coagulative necrotic pituitary apoplexy (CNPA) is a clinical entity with unique intraoperative and histopathological manifestations. We aimed to improve the knowledge of this rare disease through the largest case series published to date.
METHODS: A retrospective review of 21 CNPA patients was performed from among 5095 patients who underwent surgery for pituitary adenomas at a single institution between January 2009 and June 2017. The demographic, clinical, endocrine, neuroimaging, intraoperative, and histopathological findings, management and prognosis were summarized.
RESULTS: Headache was the most common symptom that was observed in 21 patients, followed by visual disturbances (17/21, 81.0%), nausea and vomiting (16/21, 76.2%), electrolyte disturbance (13/21, 61.9%), and oculomotor palsies (10/21, 47.6%). Hypopituitarism with at least one anterior pituitary deficiency, especially panhypopituitarism (10/21, 47.6%), was present in 81.0% of patients. Most patients (81.0%) showed typical MRI appearances. All 21 patients underwent transsphenoidal surgery (TSS), and 16 patients had total tumor resection demonstrated by postoperative MRI. Cottage cheese-like necrosis was observed in 16 patients (76.2%) intraoperatively. Histopathology showed large areas of pink, acellular, coagulative necrotic areas in the central zone, and a pseudocapsule in the border zone. After follow-up for 4.3 ± 2.3 years, only 28.6% of patients still suffered from corticotropic deficiency, and 9.5% of patients had gonadotropic deficiency. These patients were administered the appropriate corresponding hormones for life.
CONCLUSIONS: CNPA can be correctly diagnosed preoperatively by typical clinical and MRI characteristics. Early surgery combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy early postoperatively usually yields satisfactory endocrine and neuro-ophthalmic outcomes.
