Pituitary apoplexy. Sagittal neuroanatomical illustration of the human head showing acute intrapituitary hemorrhage (red) within the pituitary gland. The endocrine organ (adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis) lies in the sella turcica at the skull base beneath the optic chiasm, forming part of the hypothalamic–pituitary axis (HPA). In anatomy and neuropathology/endocrinology, this structure regulates systemic physiology by secreting trophic hormones such as ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) and TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone). The image situates the gland within the brain and cranial cavity of Homo sapiens (human), illustrating the hierarchical context of an organ within the central nervous system.
