Pituitary apoplexy is a rare entity, which is characterized by severe neurological, ophthalmological, and endocrinological complications, with acute adrenal crisis being a major concern. The diagnosis of pituitary apoplexy is challenging, particularly in cases where it coexists with bacterial meningitis, leading to a diagnostic dilemma and delay in treatment. We report a case of a 23-year-old female diagnosed with pituitary apoplexy with concurrent bacterial meningitis.
