Published July 19, 2002 Amir Hamrahian, MD Department of Endocrinology Print Chapter The Cleveland Clinic Foundation ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE PITUITARY GLAND Anatomy and Physiology of the Pituitary Gland PITUITARY TUMORS Definition and Prevalence Pathophysiology Signs and ... References The pituitary gland weighs about 0.5 to 1 gram and is divided into an anterior and a posterior lobe. It sits in the sella turcica immediately behind the sphenoid sinus. Cavernous sinuses are located laterally on each side of the sella, and include the internal carotid artery and cranial nerves III, IV, V , V , and VI. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the best method for visualizing the hypothalamic-pituitary anatomy, since the optic chiasm, vascular structures, and any tumor extension to cavernous sinuses can be well visualized compared with other imaging techniques (Figure 1) Anterior pituitary hormones are regulated by hypothalamic releasing and inhibitory hormones and the negative feedback action of the target glandular hormones at both pituitary and hypothalamic levels (Table 1) . Among pituitary hormones, only the secretion of prolactin is increased in the absence of hypothalamic influence, since it is mainly under tonic suppression through the prolactin inhibitory factor.
