The pituitary gland is a small gland that sits in the sella turcica, a saddle-shaped depression located in the bone at the base of the skull. It produces hormones that control many different processes in the body, including metabolism, growth and reproduction. A cyst (fluid-filled pouch) can also arise from the pituitary gland. Pituitary cysts are not cancerous. Sometimes the fluid increases, putting pressure on the pituitary gland or on nearby nerves or brain tissue and causing symptoms such as headaches, visual impairment, and/or hormone changes.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare, chronic (long-term) disease that slowly damages the bile ducts. Bile is a digestive liquid that is made in the liver. It travels through the bile ducts to the gallbladder and the small intestine, where it helps digest fats and fatty vitamins.
Polycystic liver disease (PLD) is characterized by the presence of multiple fluid-filled liver cysts. Although a clear definition of PLD is absent, current literature defines PLD as having more than 20 liver cysts.

Polycystic ovaries is an abnormally high number (more than 12) of visible follicles in the ovaries. It is referred to as polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM). This can also cause the ovaries to appear large in size. This condition is associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) but is not the only criteria required or necessary to be diagnosed
