Hyperprolactinemia Secondary to Pituitary Microadenoma versus Haloperidol-A Diagnostic Enigma: A Case Report and Brief Review.

CONCLUSION: Diagnosis and etiology of hyperprolactinemia were complicated by the minimal nature of clinical symptoms, the type of antipsychotic agent and the prolactin level. The MRI facilitated the diagnosis of pituitary microadenoma and further treatment option with bromocriptine. MRI of the pituitary is indicated for patients with hyperprolactinemia where the etiology is not clearly due to medication. PMID: 27440143 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
