What is pituitary apoplexy and how is it treated?
When a pituitary tumor grows, its center may get poor blood supply. Fragile new vessels can rupture, causing an internal bleed—this is pituitary apoplexy, a dangerous emergency that threatens vision and life.

In this video you’ll learn:

How it happens: tumor outgrows supply → fragile vessels → bleed/pressure

Red flags: sudden, severe headache; vomiting; rapidly dimming vision

Work-up: urgent MRI + hormone panel (steroids, thyroid & pituitary axes)

Stabilize first: replace steroids ± thyroid if low

Definitive care: endoscopic transnasal (endonasal) surgery to remove clot + tumor, relieve pressure on the optic apparatus, and obtain pathology

Recovery insight: vision often improves once pressure is relieved
