Overview

Empty Sella Syndrome (ESS) is a neurological disorder in which the pituitary gland either gets flattened or shrinks due to the enlargement of the sella turcica. It is a bony structure that surrounds and protects the pituitary gland and is present at the base of the brain. The disorder gets its name because, during imaging tests of the sella turcica, the shell may appear to be empty. Empty Sella Syndrome causes symptoms such as hormonal imbalances, frequent headaches, and vision problems.
