[Persistent trigeminal artery associated with pituitary adenoma].
The authors report of a case with a pituitary macroadenoma which was associated with a persistent trigeminal artery. The tumour was removed by transsphenoidal microsurgical approach to the sella turcica. To recognise the developmental anomaly is very important to avoid complications during operation.
