Pronounced hyperostosis frontalis interna and co‐occurring lesions in the skull base suggestive of a pituitary tumor in a woman from medieval Germany

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 1095-1100, November/December 2023., 2023
Abstract Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is an osseous overgrowth characterized by symmetrical, irregular bone apposition on the internal table of the frontal bone, which preferentially occurs in females. In 1719, Morgagni described the condition as one sign of a triad comprising HFI, hirsutism, and obesity (Morgagni's syndrome).

Hemoglobin decline as a signal for hyperprolactinemia onset prior to prolactinoma diagnosis in hypogonadal men

Andrology, Volume 11, Issue 7, Page 1398-1407, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Men harboring prolactinomas frequently suffer from central hypogonadism with secondary anemia. They present insidious and nonspecific symptoms of hypogonadism, making it difficult to diagnose the disease and determine its duration. The result is a delay in diagnosis, which may have harmful hormonal and metabolic consequences.

Pituitary metastasis from renal cell carcinoma presenting with significant hyperprolactinemia, case report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 11, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Key Clinical Message Kidney metastasis to the pituitary gland can cause hyperprolactinemia even above 250 ng/mL. Although the treatment of metastasis is palliative, surgical decompression could play a major role in the recovery of symptoms and improve quality of life.

Identifying hormones and other perioperative risk factors for postoperative delirium after endoscope‐assisted transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma resection: A retrospective, matched cohort study

Brain and Behavior, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
We investigated the potential perioperative risk factors for postoperative delirium in pituitary adenoma patients treated by endoscope‐assisted transsphenoidal surgery. We found that lower IGF‐1 and CRH levels were tightly associated with postdelirium and high levels of blood glucose (GLU) after surgery.

Giant Prolactinomas [PDF]

Neuroendocrinology, 2018
Prolactin-secreting adenomas (prolactinomas) are the most common secreting adenomas of the pituitary. Microprolactinomas (diameter <10 mm) are frequently diagnosed in women, whereas macroprolactinomas (maximum diameter ≥10 mm) are generally seen in men. Most macroprolactinomas measure between 10 and 40 mm.

Prospective evaluation of multidimensional health‐related quality of life after endoscopic endonasal surgery for pituitary adenomas using the endoscopic endonasal sinus and skull base surgery questionnaire

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 7-15, February 2023., 2023
The EES‐Q provides meaningful information on multidimensional HRQoL in one single instrument to improve patient‐centred health care. Social HRQoL warrants extra attention as patients with pituitary adenoma experience the most inconveniences in social HRQoL preoperatively and during follow‐up. Abstract Objective Social functioning is an important factor
