Among these, postpartum lymphocytic hypophysitis emerges as a particularly notable etiology. As a relatively recent entity, its recognition mandates a multidisciplinary approach to ensure preservation of compromised vital prognosis and amelioration of associated neuro-ophthalmologic and\/or hypophyseal manifestations. We present a remarkable case of lymphocytic hypophysitis in a 32-year-old woman, unveiled during the postpartum period. Despite employing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), preoperative diagnosis remained challenging. Surgical intervention became imperative due to progressive visual impairments. Postoperative course demonstrated favorable evolution, characterized by significant enhancement in visual acuity and normalization of cerebral MRI findings during follow-up.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0045-1808057","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T18:53:38Z","timestamp":1745520818000},"page":"621-626","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Postpartum Pseudoadenomatous Hypophysitis Simulating a Pituitary Macroadenoma: A Case Report and Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-4508-1907","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elkorno","family":"Mohammed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Oudrhiri Mohammed","family":"Yassaad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elkorno","family":"Hajar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elouahabi","family":"Abdessamad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cherradi","family":"Nadia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anapathology, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elouazzani","family":"Hafssa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anapathology, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arkha","family":"Yasser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Specialty Hospital, CHU Ibn Sina, Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"584","DOI":"10.1002\/path.1700830241","article-title":"Anterior hypophysitis and Hashimoto's disease in a young woman","volume":"83","author":"R B Goudie","year":"1962","journal-title":"J Pathol Bacteriol"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref2","first-page":"284","article-title":"Primary hypothyroidism, pituitary insufficiency and pregnancy.
