چکیده انگلیسی
MRI imaging is the technique of choice in the diagnosis of children with hypopituitarism. Marked differences in MRI pituitary gland morphology suggest different etiologies of GHD and different prognoses. Pituitary stalk agenesis and ectopic posterior pituitary (EPP) are specific markers of permanent GHD, and patients with these MRI findings show a different clinical and endocrine outcome compared to those with normal pituitary anatomy or hypoplastic pituitary alone. Furthermore, the classic triad of ectopic posterior pituitary gland, pituitary stalk hypoplasia/agenesis, and anterior pituitary gland hypoplasia is generally associated with permanent GHD. T2 DRIVE images aid in the identification of pituitary stalk without the use of contrast medium administration. Future developments in imaging techniques will undoubtedly reveal additional insights. Mutations in a number of genes encoding transcription factors - such as HESX1, SOX2, SOX3, LHX3, LHX4, PROP1, POU1F1, PITX, GLI3, GLI2, OTX2, ARNT2, IGSF1, FGF8, FGFR1, PROKR2, PROK2, CHD7, WDR11, NFKB2, PAX6, TCF7L1, IFT72, GPR161 and CDON - have been associated with pituitary dysfunction and abnormal pituitary gland development; the correlation of genetic mutations to endocrine and MRI phenotypes has improved our knowledge of pituitary development and management of patients with hypopituitarism, both in terms of possible genetic counseling, and of early diagnosis of evolving anterior pituitary hormone deficiencies.
