Biography
Joanna Sawicka is a fourth year medical student of College of Medical Sciences of University of Rzeszów. Macroadenomas are common beningn hypophyseal tumours, that may cause disruption of visual field [1] or other symptoms by mass effect [2]. Following the diagnosis a trans-sphenoid tumor removal is the treatment of choice in patients with visual field impairment [3]. We would like to present a rare case of a patient with ischemic stroke being an macroadenoma resection complication.
