Pituicytoma is a rare neoplasm, arising in the posterior pituitary or in the hypophyseal stalk, and its cytological findings have not yet been well‐described. We have experienced a case of pituicytoma, which was difficult to diagnose intraoperatively, because of its cellular pleomorphism. A tumor measuring 18 mm in maximum diameter was found at the sella turcica in a Japanese woman in her forties. Both intraoperative crush cytology and histology of the resected tumor showed pleomorphic spindle or round cells, including multinucleated cells. Tumor cells were positive for TTF‐1, S‐100 protein, and vimentin, partially positive for glial fibrillary acidic protein and epithelial membrane antigen, and negative for synaptophysin, hormones of the anterior pituitary gland, CD34, Olig2, PAX8, and napsin A. Ki‐67 labeling index was 2.0%. Tumors included in the differential diagnosis in general are pituitary adenoma, craniopharyngioma, germinoma, and metastatic tumor on the radiological standpoint, and pilocytic astrocytoma and meningioma on the cytological standpoint. However, our case was difficult to differentiate especially from high‐grade glioma only by morphology, and immunohistochemistry including TTF‐1 was helpful.
