MRI showed an intrasellar lesion of the pituitary gland. She underwent transsphenoidal surgery for histopathological diagnosis and removal of the lesion. Histological findings were consistent with a tuberculoma. She was put on anti-tuberculosis drugs and is being followed up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In endemic areas, pituitary tuberculosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pituitary tumors. The histological examination will guide the diagnosis. Sometimes, other complementary examinations such as the tuberculin skin test can be of great help when the histology is not conclusive.
