摘要自身免疫性垂体炎虽相对少见,却可造成严重的健康问题,大约有一半自身免疫性垂体炎的患者被误诊为垂体腺瘤而接受了不必要的手术.提高垂体自身免疫性垂体炎的诊断率.除了需要加强对该病的认识,积累更多的诊治经验外,还需深入研究和确认垂体的致病抗原,发展血清学试验以用于垂体占位病变的鉴别诊断;其次需要建立垂体自身免疫病患者的登记数据库,为进行基础和临床创新性研究提供病例来源.

abstractsDespite autoimmune hypophysitis remains relatively rare, it still poses a significant problem.Currently, about a half of the hypophysitis patients are misdiagnosed as pituitary adenoma and undergo unnecessary surgery. It is increasingly being recognized the identification of the real pituitary autoantigens and development of serologic tests in the differential diagnosis of pituitary masses before surgery. It is necessary to establish disease registration for patients with autoimmnune hypophysitis and get enough well-characterized cases for both basic and clinical studies fostering innovation in the field.
