We report a patient who had pituitary adenoma and parasellar meningioma coincidentally, with neither irradiation nor a history of head injury. Preoperative computed tomographic (CT) scan had shown a large intrasellar mass with ring-like enhancement; in contact with this mass, another well-enhanced mass had been shown. Histopathologically, the intrasellar mass was diagnosed as chromophobic pituitary adenoma and the other mass as meningotheliomatous meningioma. We present clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings and discuss previously reported cases of coincidental pituitary adenoma and meningioma without irradiation. This is the first case report since the advent of CT that pituitary adenoma and parasellar meningioma in contact with each other could be clearly demonstrated by CT.
