An enlarged sella turcica refers to an abnormal increase in the size of the sella turcica, a cavity in the skull that houses the pituitary gland. This enlargement can be caused by various conditions, including pituitary tumors, cysts, or other lesions, and may be associated with hormonal imbalances or neurological symptoms. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies, such as MRI or CT scans, to assess the underlying cause. Treatment depends on the specific etiology and may involve monitoring, medication, or surgical intervention.
