Özet: Panhypopituitarism occurs as a result of the insufficiency of all hormones produced in the anterior pituitary gland. Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome (PSIS) is a rare congenital syndrome leading to hypopituitarism. The anterior pituitary hormones should be evaluated in patients with the signs and symptoms of hormone insufficiency and magnetic resonance imaging of the pituitary should be performed for the etiology. Although PSIS is a rare cause of hypopituitarism, it must be treated with the replacement of the insufficient hormones. In this case report, we evaluated a PSIS case presented with panhypopituitarism
