Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome in a Young Male with Congenital Hypopituitarism: MRI Findings and Clinical Correlation

Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome (PSIS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by a triad of anatomical anomalies affecting the pituitary gland. We present the case of a 21-year-old male with congenital hypopituitarism. MRI findings were critical in confirming PSIS and guiding further management. This case highlights the essential role of imaging in evaluating patients with endocrine dysfunction and growth failure.

Abstract

Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome (PSIS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by a triad of anatomical anomalies affecting the pituitary gland. We present the case of a 21-year-old male with congenital hypopituitarism. MRI findings were critical in confirming PSIS and guiding further management. This case highlights the essential role of imaging in evaluating patients with endocrine dysfunction and growth failure.
