Abstract

Apoplexy in sellar metastasis is very rare with only a few case reports in literature. A case of apoplexy in sellar metastasis from follicular thyroid carcinoma is reported and the literature is briefly reviewed. The patient presented with sudden onset headache and bi-lateral loss of vision following thyroidectomy in a case of follicular carcinoma thyroid with proven sellar metastasis. CT scan showed hyperdense blood in sellar mass suggestive of apoplexy in sellar metastasis. The patient underwent early trans-sphenoidal decompression. Apoplexy in sellar metastasis, although very rare, can be clinico-radiologically indistinguishable from pituitary apoplexy and should be especially considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with known primary neoplastic disease. In view of similar patho-physiological mechanism, sellar metastasis with apoplexy should be managed in a similar manner as pituitary apoplexy.

Özet

Sella metastazlarında apopleksi çok nadir görülür ve literatürde sadece birkaç olgu sunumu vardır. Foliküler tiroid karsinomundan kaynaklanan bir sella metastazında apopleksi olgusu bildirilmiştir ve literatür kısaca gözden geçirilmiştir. Kanıtlanmış sella metastazlı bir foliküler tiroid karsinomu olgusunda hasta tiroidektomi sonrası ani başlayan başağrısı ve bilateral görme kaybı ile başvurdu. BT selladaki kitlede hiperdens kan gösteriyordu ve bu da sella metastazının apopleksisini destekliyordu. Hastaya erken dönemde transsfenoidal dekompresyon uygulandı. Sella metastazlarında apopleksi çok nadir olmasına rağmen klinik-radyolojik olarak pituiter apopleksiden ayırt edilemez olabilir ve özellikle bilinen primer neoplazisi olan hastaların ayırıcı tanılarında göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Benzer pato-fizyolojik mekanizmaların ışığında sella metastazları apopleksisi pituiter apopleksiyle benzer şekilde tedavi edilmelidir.
