Bilateral sixth nerve palsies in a patient with massive pituitary adenoma

Raul Lopez, M.D., Noble J. David, M.D., Fredie Gargano, M.D. and Judith Donovan Post, M.D.

Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery (Dr. Lopez), Mercy Hospital, the University of Miami School of Medicine (Drs. David and Post), and the Neurology Service (Dr. David) VA Medical Center, Miami, and Palmetto General Hospital (Dr. Gargano), Hialeah, FL.

A middle-aged man developed bilateral abducens weakness as the only symptom of a huge chromophobe adenoma of the pituitary gland. This unique presentation delayed diagnosis until exploration and biopsy. The patient, who recovered completely, was studied prior to the era of computerized tomography.
