Posterior pituitary ectopia refers to an absent normal posterior pituitary bright spot within the sella with ectopic bright signal at another site (such as the median eminence) on T1 weighted images. We describe one case with congenital pituitary dwarfism caused by ectopic posterior pituitary gland. Key words: Ectopic posterior pituitary gland, congenital pituitary dwarfism.
