Abstract
The occurrence of arthritis in hypopituitarism has been mentioned but not stressed previously. It appears that arthritis is at least twice as common in these patients as in the general population and this may be due to their hypoadaptive state. Two cases of rheumatoid arthritis and Sheehan''s syndrome are reported.Keywords
