Management of Hypopituitarism [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
Hypopituitarism includes all clinical conditions that result in partial or complete failure of the anterior and posterior lobe of the pituitary gland’s ability to secrete hormones. The aim of management is usually to replace the target-hormone of hypothalamo-pituitary-endocrine gland axis with the exceptions of secondary hypogonadism when fertility is ...

The role of stereotactic radiosurgery in the multimodal management of growth hormone–secreting pituitary adenomas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Growth hormone (GH)–secreting pituitary adenomas represent a common source of GH excess in patients with acromegaly. Whereas surgical extirpation of the culprit lesion is considered first-line treatment, as many as 19% of patients develop recurrent ...
