ABSTRACT

We present a case of a 28-year-old woman with a history of severe headaches and pituitary insufficiency. She was found to have a large, enhancing, sellar mass consistent with a pituitary adenoma. The patient's surgical care was delayed due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and follow-up imaging revealed spontaneous involution of the sellar mass. Spontaneous involution of pituitary masses has been described but not often encountered in clinical practice. This case highlights that follow-up imaging is necessary when scheduling elective surgeries during the COVID-19 pandemic.
