ABSTRACT

We present an interesting case of a cystic, pituitary adenoma that showed up insidiously with non-traditional clinical symptoms. The standard of care for non-functioning pituitary adenomas is transsphenoidal surgery. However, with pharmacotherapy using cabergoline (a dopamine receptor agonist), the patient had a near disappearance of the tumor. This case report seeks to add to the medical literature the possibility of pharmacotherapy for treating non-functional pituitary adenomas.

ABSTRACT

We present an insightful case of a middle-aged male who presented to the emergency department (ED) with complaints of excessive weight loss, accompanied by shortness of breath and vomiting. Consequently, this case explores many facets of the pathophysiology of infective endocarditis (IE), including but not limited to the most heavily implicated microorganisms, symptoms, predispositions, and disease outcomes. IE is a pathology of variable presentation with uniquely extensive diagnostic criteria, making it a fascinating topic of medical discussion.
