A symptomatic empty sella developed in a female patient undergoing bromocriptine therapy for microprolactinoma. Placement of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt dramatically improved the symptoms of headache and blurred vision. The post-operative imaging showed resolution of the empty sella. She was able to resume bromocriptine therapy without recurrence of her previous symptoms and give birth to a baby 20 months later. An MRI 44 months after surgery and on bromocriptine therapy showed no recurrence of the empty sella.We conclude that ventriculoperitoneal shunt may be a simple, and durable treatment for drug induced empty sella and allows resumption of bromocriptine therapy for preexisting microprolactinoma.
