Abstract

Unlike pituitary apoplexia, pituitary adenoma hemorrhage is mostly a nonsymptomatic radiological finding, and is frequently called “subacute hemorrhage” in the literature. Most cases have no identifiable cause. Hemorrhage is quite frequent, mainly in nonfunctioning adenomas and in macro- and microprolactinomas treated with dopamine agonists or not. This condition is generally benign and seems in some cases to favor the cure of the disease. Pituitary adenoma hemorrhage is also common in childhood and adolescence.
