Fig. 2 Magnetic resonance images with use of gadolinium. A, Sagittal view of pituitary 6 months after biopsy, showing enhanced pituitary mass (black arrowhead) extending to optic chiasm (open arrowhead) with probable hypothalamic enhancement as well. White arrow signifies infundibulum. B, Sagittal view of pituitary 14 months after Figure 2 A image, showing spontaneous, complete resolution of pituitary mass and normal-sized pituitary (black arrowhead), optic chiasm (open arrowhead), infundibulum (white arrow), and inflammatory cyst (black arrow) in sphenoid sinus.
