Intrasellar tuberculoma.
Intrasellar tuberculoma mimicking a secreting adenoma is a rare occurrence. Although clinical and radiological features were suggestive of pituitary adenoma, histopathological examination following surgery showed a tuberculoma. There were no clinico-radiological features pathognomonic of an intrasellar tuberculoma.
