      The last case is one of a 40-year-old male, who was investigated for seizures, and the sella had an incidental finding. There were no symptoms of hormone imbalance or visual defects. Investigations confirmed that there was no hormonal imbalance. A CT scan of the pituitary region did not show any calcification.
      We would appreciate it if you could send in your suggestions on what this lesion could be. We will include them in our next issue.

     "A large part of our knowledge of the sellar pathology has come from "l'Ecole de Besançon", directed by Jean-François Bonneville, and his associate Dr Françoise Cattin. We had the pleasure of having Françoise here with us in the department for a year in 1997. We would like to acknowledge their expertise and tell Françoise that we really miss her in Montreal."
