| dc.description.abstract | Abstract Pituitary adenomas are common intracranial tumors, and ovarian dermoids are frequently encountered benign gynecological lesions. While both conditions are individually prevalent, their co-existence is rare and infrequently reported. This unusual combination may pose diagnostic challenges and warrants further exploration to determine any potential underlying link. We present a case of a 42-year-old Hindu female who was diagnosed case of a pituitary adenoma with a leftsided ovarian dermoid cyst resulting in a gynecological and hormonal imbalance. The diagnosis was confirmed by subsequent related investigations and the patient has been getting symptomatic treatment.This case underscores the importance of a comprehensive differential diagnosis in patients presenting with related symptoms and highlights the value of a multidisciplinary approach for timely diagnosis, effective management, and improved patient outcomes. Despite advancements, the relationship between elevated prolactin levels and the pathophysiology of ovarian dermoid cysts remains unclear. The synchronous occurrence of these two conditions is rare and continues to pose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for clinicians. | |
