Abstract

Metastatic melanoma has a propensity for multiple intra cranial deposits. Rarely, metastatic melanoma to the pituitary gland has been reported, usually in conjunction with widespread systemic metastases. We describe a patient with metastatic melanoma to the pituitary gland as the first clinical presentation of widespread metastatic disease and review the relevant literature.
