Abstract

Sheehan's syndrome is pituitary deficiency induced by intrapartum and postpartum hemorrhage and hypovolemia. It is still frequent in underdeveloped and developing countries. Sheehan's syndrome is one of the reason of empty sella. The symptoms of the syndrome can be seen months to years later depend on the degree of pituitary damage. History of postpartum hemorrhage, failure to lactate and cessation of menses are important clues to the diagnosis. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are very important to reduce morbidity and mortality of the patients. In this study, Sheehan's syndrome which led to panhypopituitarism and developed gradually in a patient with Sheehan's syndrome who delivered a baby at home 30 years ago and had severe postpartum hemorrhage will be presented.

Abstract

A 14-year-old girl was admitted due to lack of breast development and amenorrhea. The results of basal hormone studies were consistent with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. The uterine and ovarian sizes were of prepubertal dimensions, and the karyotype was found as 46 XX. Pituitary imaging for the etiology of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism revealed empty sella syndrome. Here, we wanted to emphasize the necessity of considering organic pituitary pathologies, particularly empty sella syndrome, in the differential diagnosis of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and the importance of imaging studies in such cases.

Abstract

45 yaşındaki 1 çocuklu hasta adet görememe şikayetiyle kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın özgeçmişinde 20 yıl önce evde doğum yaptığı, doğum sonrası plasentanın düşmemesi nedeniyle aşırı kanamasının olduğu öğrenildi. Hastanın yapılan hormon tahlillerinde panhipopituitarizm bulguları görüldü. MRI incelemesinde hastada empty sella tesbit edildi. Glukokortikoid, tiroksin ve estrojen - progesteron tedavisi başlandı. Sheehan Sendromu postpartum kanama ve hipovolemiye bağlı olarak gelişen hipofiz ve adrenal yetmezliğidir. Hipofizin hasar derecesine göre belirtiler hemen ya da yıllar sonra ortaya çıkabilir. En belirgin özellikler laktasyonun kesilmesi, sekonder amenore, libido kaybı ve hipofiz rezervlerinin kaybına bağlı gelişecek semptomlardır. Empty sella, suprasellar subaraknoid yapıların intrasellar herniasyonu sonucu meydana gelen komplet ya da inkomplet hipofiz yetmezliğidir. Empty sella sendromunun nedenlerinden biri aşırı postpartum kanama sonucu gelişen hipofiz nekrozudur (Sheehan Sendromu). CT ve MRI empty sellanın tanısında en önemli teşhis metodlarıdır. Sheehan Sendromu gelişen hastalarda hormon replasman (glukokortikoid, tiroksin ve östrojen/progesteron) tedavisi uygulanır., Fourtyfive years old patient with parity 1 was admitted hospital due to amenorrhea. She had given birth at home 20 years ago and had severe bleeding due to retained placenta. Her hormonal examination showed panhypopitiutarism. Empty sella was diagnosed by MRI examination. Glucocorticoid, thyroxin and estrogen-progesteron treatment were given. Sheehan� Syndrome is insufficiency of pituitary and adrenal gland due to postpartum hemorrhage and hypovolemia. Symptoms may develop immediately or after years depending on severity of pituitary destruction. Most prominant symptoms are secondary amenorrhea, loss of lactation, loss of libido and other symptoms due to loss of pituitary reserves. Empty sella is complete or incomplete insufficiancy of hypophysis due to intracellar herniation of subarachnoid structures. One cause of empty sella is pituitary necrosis developing after severe postpartum hemorrhage (Sheehan� Syndrome). CT and MRI are best methods for diagnosis of empty sella. Hormon replacement treatment (glucocorticoid, thyroxin and estrogen-progesteron) is given to patients with Sheehan� Syndrome.
