Abstract
Ectopic prolactinomas may rarely present as meningitis secondary to retrograde transmission of bacteria through a bony defect in the sphenoid sinus, and must be included in the differential diagnosis of any sphenoid sinus mass. Management should first address the infection, followed by surgical repair of the bony defect.
