Empty Sella Syndrome and Pituitary Function
5. Symptoms
Symptoms of empty sella syndrome vary depending on the underlying cause. Most people are asymptomatic. In rare cases, pressure increases in the skull, causing spinal fluid to drip from the nose and possibly leading to vision changes. Pituitary gland function is normally not affected, however people with secondary empty sella syndrome due to trauma or a pituitary tumor are more likely to have these symptoms.
