Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is a potentially malignant vascular neoplasm that in rare cases presents as a primary intracranial lesion, where most often it is meningeal in origin. Hemangiopericytoma arising within the sella turcica is an even more sporadic event. To our knowledge, only 9 cases of HPC presenting as a sellar or suprasellar mass have been reported in the literature. Often, these cases can mimic and be mistaken for a pituitary adenoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We report a case of an 18-year-old woman presenting with a sellar mass which was thought both clinically and radiologically to be a pituitary adenoma. RESULTS: Based on histologic, immunohistochemical and electron-microscopic studies, the diagnosis of sellar HPC was made. CONCLUSION: Hemangiopericytoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of sellar or suprasellar masses.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
