Congenital Hypopituitarism: Genotypic–Phenotypic–Neuroradiological Correlation

Pozzobon Gabriella Cinzia , Partenope Cristina , Gallo Dario , Damia Chiara , Lezzi Marilea , Pajno Roberta , Marinella Gemma , Osimani Sara , Weber Giovanna

Background: Congenital hypopituitarism is a rare cause of pituitary insufficiency (incidence: 12–42 new cases/million per year; prevalence: 300–455 cases/million). The aetiology remains largely unclear: the most frequently correlated genetic abnormalities are those involving transcription factors implicated in pituitary organogenesis. The phenotype and neuroradiological findings associated with the underlying genotype may be highly variable (from an isolated hypopitu...

Septo-Optic Dysplasia and Excellent Growth with Low Growth Hormone Dose: Our Experience

Pozzobon Gabriella Cinzia , Marinella Gemma , Damia Chiara , Partenope Cristina , Gallo Dario , Pajno Roberta , Osimani Sara , Weber Giovanna

Background: Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) is a congenital, rare anomaly (1:10 000) associated with optic nerve hypoplasia, midline brain abnormalities and pituitary hormone abnormalities. Genetic alterations associated are: HESX1, SOX2 and SOX3. SOD’s pattern of growth even without GH treatment has been reported to be often good.Objective and hypotheses: Evaluate SOD’s growth in patients followed in our Centre.Method: See F...

Introduction: Craniopharyngiomas (CP) are benign, dysontogenic supra or intra-sellar tumours. They are locally aggressive with severe endocrine, neurological and ophthalmological implications. Somatotroph deficiencies rise therapeutic management problems due to increased risk of tumour growth and recurrence.Case report: Male patient, aged 18 years 4 months, born naturally, late-term (42 weeks, 3200 g, Apgar 7), third child in a brotherhood of four (appar...

Hreniuc Ana , Gherasim Simona , Ungureanu Maria-Christina , Preda Cristina , Vulpoi Carmen , Mogos Voichita , Rotariu Daniel , Poeata Ion , Leustean Letitia

A female patient was firstly evaluated at the age of 12 years, complaining of headaches and visual loss. Physical examination demonstrated adequate height and weight, Tanner stage P1B1. Papillary edema was confirmed by fundus examination. MRI showed a pituitary macroadenoma, 6.6×7.3×6.1 cm with compression of the optic chiasm and bilateral cavernous sinus invasion. The first prolactin value obtained was 169.164 uUI/ml (normal<210) with the other pituitary axis wi...

Background: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and methimazole (MMI)-induced toxic hepatitis are both rare diseases in pediatric age.Case presentation: We present the case of a 15-year-old girl affected by idiopathic arthritis and autoimmune thyroiditis. The autoimmune thyroiditis was diagnosed at 13 years of age. At 15 years old she developed hyperthyroidism (TSH <0.01 mcU/ml, FT4 2.3 ng/dl, FT3 8.4 pg/ml, TRAb 18 IU/l) and was treated with MMI (0.28 mg/kg ...
