Abstract

Hypophysis apoplexy is a clinical syndrome characterized by the sudden development of headache, visual disturbance, associated with nausea, vomiting, signs of meningeal irritation and ophthalmoplegia. The symptoms are caused by the hemorrhage of a hypophyseal adenoma. This leads to the swelling of the tumor and compression of the perisellar structures. The authors processed the clinical and pathological characteristics of 28 cases occurring among the patient material of the National Institute of Neurosurgery of the past 10 years. According to the experiences the most important factor of a successful treatment of hypophyseal apoplexy is an early diagnosis and quick admittance to an institute of neurosurgery of satisfactory conditions. Thereafter a steroid hormone therapy of large doses and decompression operation performed by transnasal-transsphenoidal approach leads in the majority of cases to recovery.
