Overview
Common risk factors in the development of pituitary apoplexy include bleeding disorders, diabetes, use of a breathing machine, radiation to the pituitary gland, angiography, head injury, surgery, pituitary stimulation, and pregnancy induced lactotroph hyperplasia.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of pituitary apoplexy include:[1][2]
- Bleeding disorders
- Diabetes
- Use of a breathing machine
- Radiation to the pituitary gland
- Angiography
- Head injury
- Surgery leading to hypotension
- Pituitary stimulation with ACTH, TRH or GnRH analogue
- Pregnancy induced lactotroph hyperplasia
