Abstract

IgG4 hypophysitis is a pathology found in non-functioning pituitary masses. We present the case of a 52-year-old woman with a history of orbital myositis of unclear etiology who came to our center for headache with alarm criteria and clinical signs of diabetes insipidus. The imaging study showed a pituitary mass causing panhypopituitarism. Analytically it highlights elevated serum levels of IgG4, so with the suspicion of the disease treatment is initiated with corticosteroids, with a great clinical improvement.
