A 49-year-old man presented with a 6-month history of weight loss, muscular weakness, easy fatigue, impotence, decreased visual acuity, campimetry defects. The results of radiologic and endocrine testing disclosed the presence of pituitary dysfunction due to pituitary stalk section caused by a giant suprasellar aneurysm extending into the sellar region. After the neurosurgical decompression of the aneurysm a progressive normalization of all pituitary functions was demonstrated. In this case, the preoperative finding of a preserved pituitary integrity with acute and prolonged endocrine testing demonstrated to be predictable of a recovery of the hypothalamo-pituitary axis after the removal of the mass effect caused by the giant aneurysm.
