[Significance of medical imaging findings in sphenoid sinus disease to pituitarism].

To explore the relationship between medical imaging finding in sphenoid sinus disease and pituitarism, medical images in sphenoid sinus of 7 patients with pituitarism were analysed. Three cases had mass, and the other 4 cases had inflammatory disease in sphenoid sinus. However, their pituitary images were all normal. Sphenoid sinus disease is significant to pituitarism, but may be overlooked. Radiologists must pay more attention to imaging finding in sphenoid sinus.
