Abstract

Sheehan’s Syndrome is a rare clinical condition characterized by post‐partal panhypopituitarism due to necrosis of pituitary gland . Due to PPH, the blood supply to the pituitary gland is jeopardized resulting in necrosis of the gland. There can be a wide range of symptoms, a patient with Sheehan’s syndrome can present with. These symptoms can be often misleading if proper history is not taken. Here, we present a case of 50 years old female who was previously admitted with complaints of fever and pain abdomen, developed anasarca, dyspnea and recurrent hypoglycemia with due course of time and was ultimately diagnosed as a rare manifestation of ‘Sheehan’s Syndrome’.
