Corroborating the CT findings, the sellar/suprasellar lesion is a destructive process to neighbour structures (cliffs). In addition, it shows heterogeneous enhancement.
The lesion is heterogeneous, with predominantly high signal intensity in T2 and low signal intensity in T1, with areas of with interspersed hyperintensity in the latter. Overall, the appearance represents intra-lesional bleeding and areas of cystic degeneration.
There is a significant mass effect in the surrounding area, with a lobulated extension of the tumour towards the prepontine cistern, with indentation of the pons. The superior-anterior extension is also causing displacement of the optic chiasm, tract, and the optic nerve. The lateral aspect is invading cavernous sinuses bilaterally, and displacement of the left cavernous carotid. The tumour is causing mild mass effect on the left mesial temporal structure.
