ABSTRACT

La resonancia magnética constituye el examen ideal en pacientes con presunción clínica de tumores en la región selar, pues no emite radiaciones ionizantes y debido a su visión multiplanar y discriminación tisular, posibilita adoptar una conducta terapéutica adecuada y un seguimiento sin riesgos en estos casos. Se describen las imágenes obtenidas con esa técnica sobre los principales tumores selares, correspondientes a macroadenomas hipofisarios, meningioma intraselar, craneofaringioma supraselar y como caso interesante perteneciente a esta región: el cordoma del clivus, por poseer en la actualidad mejores posibilidades diagnósticas que en décadas anteriores


Magnetic resonance constitutes the ideal exam in patients with clinical presumption of tumors in the selar region, because it doesn't emit ionizing radiations and due to its multiplanar vision and tissular discrimination, it facilitates the adoption of an appropriate therapeutic behavior and a follow up without risks in these cases. The images obtained with that technique on the main selar tumors are described, corresponding to hypophysary macroadenomas, intraselar meningioma, supraselar craneopharyngioma and as an interesting case belonging to this region: the clivus chordoma, for having better diagnostic possibilities at the present time than in previous decades
