Precipitating factors include the use of dopamine agonists (DAs), whose main indication is the treatment of prolactin (PRL)-secreting pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs), but which can also be considered in non-functioning PitNETs. Here we report a case of PA in a patient taking cabergoline for a non-functioning PitNET, followed by a review of the literature focusing on the cases of PA associated with the use of DAs. Methods: A review of the literature was performed, searching Pubmed for other clinical cases of PA associated with the use of DAs, from inception to March 2025. Results: We found 43 cases of PA associated with the use of DAs. All the patients had secreting tumors: 86% were classified as PRL-secreting PitNETs, 7% were classified as GH-secreting PitNETs, and 4.6% included a mixed PRL\/GH-secreting PitNET and a TSH-secreting PitNET. By contrast, here we present a case of PA in a non-functioning PitNET during cabergoline therapy. Our patient was managed conservatively and endocrine function recovered spontaneously. In our case, cabergoline might have promoted PA, which is consistent with the reported efficacy of cabergoline in inducing tumor shrinkage of non-functioning PitNETs that express dopamine 2 receptors, including silent PIT1 and SF1 or NULL tumors. Conclusions: Our case confirms cabergoline efficacy in non-functioning PitNETs and sheds light on a possible complication of its use. Patients, particularly those with large tumors, should be closely monitored for this occurrence.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14145089","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,17]],"date-time":"2025-07-17T14:13:43Z","timestamp":1752761623000},"page":"5089","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Pituitary Apoplexy in a Non-Functioning PitNET After Cabergoline Use: Case Report and Review of the Literature"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Federica","family":"De Luca","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Surgical and Health Sciences, University of Trieste, Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Margherita","family":"Paccagnella","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Surgical and Health Sciences, University of Trieste, Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Pizzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Surgical and Health Sciences, University of Trieste, Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Giulia","family":"Zuolo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrinology Unit Medicina Clinica (ASUGI), Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Veronica","family":"Calabr\u00f2","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrinology Unit Medicina Clinica (ASUGI), Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7429-3075","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stella","family":"Bernardi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Surgical and Health Sciences, University of Trieste, Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"},{"name":"Endocrinology Unit Medicina Clinica (ASUGI), Cattinara Teaching Hospital, Strada di Fiume 447, 34149 Trieste, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"789","article-title":"Pathological report of a case of acromegaly with especial reference to the lesions in the hypophysis cerebri and in the thyroid gland; and a case of hemorrhage into the pituitary","volume":"1","author":"Bailey","year":"1898","journal-title":"Phila.
