: Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare medical emergency characterized by the sudden onset of symptoms resulting from hemorrhage and/or infarction within the pituitary gland. Precipitating factors include the use of dopamine agonists (DAs), whose main indication is the treatment of prolactin (PRL)-secreting pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs), but which can also be considered in non-functioning PitNETs. Here we report a case of PA in a patient taking cabergoline for a non-functioning PitNET, followed by a review of the literature focusing on the cases of PA associated with the use of DAs.
