Of 500 consecutive unselected patients who underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 20 (12 females, 8 males; mean age, 41 yr) were found to have empty sella. The clinical and imaging findings were compared to those in 20 normal adult control subjects, and 20 patients of comparable age and sex from the group of 500 consecutive patients. Variations in the pituitary infundibulum, the optic chiasm, and the sellar floor did not correlate to symptoms. Little difference in clinical symptomatology between patients with empty sella and control subjects was found. It is concluded that empty sella is often an insignificant finding in adults. © American Society of Neuroimaging. (EN)
