Hypophyseal enlargement refers to an increase in size of the pituitary gland, which is located at the base of the brain. This condition can result from various factors, including tumors, hormonal imbalances, or other underlying health issues. Symptoms may vary depending on the specific cause and can include headaches, vision problems, or hormonal disturbances. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies and hormonal assays to determine the underlying cause.
Basically, the hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract is the axon connection that connects the posterior pituitary gland to the hypothalamus
