Abstract:
Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS) is associated with low viability and growth retardation of children and adolescents.Because of complex and variable clinical features,PSIS is often misdiagnosed.Now,the features of clinical manifestations and delineation of pituitary structure in magnetic resonance imaging are summarized,which can help the doctors to make more refined diagnosis,and to also make suggestions for hormone replacement therapy and focus of follow-up.
