Name of the Patient : Abc XyzAndhyarulmn / M / 47 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzdy.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Sella & Perisellar Region.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O sudden onset of impotency.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the sella and perisellar region was performed using the following parameters :
3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.
After contrast administration the following parameters were used:
3 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal and sagittal images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted delayed coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
The pituitary gland is normal in its size, contour and location and reveals normal signal intensity. The posterior pituitary gland reveals normal hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images. The pituitary stalk is in the midline. The hypothalamus is unremarkable.
The cavernous sinuses and the suprasellar cistern are normal.
There is no focal area of altered signal intensity in the brain parenchyma.
Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
After contrast administration, there is no focal area of abnormal enhancement in the brain parenchyma or the meninges, pituitary gland or perisellar region. Enhancement of the inflammatory mucosa in the sphenoid sinus is noted.
Inflammatory changes are noted in the left maxillary antrum and sphenoid sinus.
IMPRESSION :
Normal study of the Sella and Perisellar Region and Brain.
Left maxillary and sphenoid sinusitis.
