Abstract:
Colloid cyst is a congenital lesion which is thought to be derived from the primitive neuroepithelium, and is most frequently located in the anterior half of the third ventricle. Colloid cysts rarely occur in the pituitary gland, and we describe a case of pituitary colloid cyst, including the CT, MRI and pathologic findings.
