  • Historical Perspective[ Postpartum ischemic pituitary necrosis was first reported about a century ago in Przeglad Lekarski by Leon Konrad Gliński, though it was named after Harold Sheehan. Postpartum ischemic pituitary necrosis is still one of the most common causes of hypopituitarism in developing countries but it's prevalence is decreased in developed countries because of improved obstetrical care. Mostly, PPH leading to severe hypotension or shock results in Sheehan's syndrome.[1]
  • Classification[edit | edit source]
  • Pathophysiology[Apart from vasospasm, thrombosis and compression of the hypophyseal arteries, pituitary gland enlargement, autoimmunity, DIC and smaller size of sella are thought to play a contributing role in pathogenesis of sheehan Syndrome.[2]. It is thought that tissue necrosis could release sequestered antigens, potentiaiting autoimmunity of the pituitary and hypopituitarism in Sheehan's syndrome.[3] ]
