The Epigenomics of Pituitary Adenoma [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019Background: The vast majority of pituitary tumors are benign and behave accordingly; however, a fraction are invasive and are more aggressive, with a very small fraction being frankly malignant. The cellular pathways that drive transformation in pituitary neoplasms are poorly characterized, and current classification methods are not reliable correlates

BMJ Case Reports, 2014
A healthy 68-year-old man presented in the emergency room with a sudden episode of headache and vomiting together with disequilibrium and crural paresis. The laboratory evaluation revealed hyponatraemia (Na+115 mEq/L). Head MRI demonstrated a giant 40×25×31 mm pituitary lesion (figures 1 and 2). Laboratory studies revealed growth hormone (GH) 0.1 ng/mL

The Genetics of Pituitary Adenomas [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2019The genetic landscape of pituitary adenomas (PAs) is diverse and many of the identified cases remain of unclear pathogenetic mechanism. Germline genetic defects account for a small percentage of all patients and may present in the context of relevant family history. Defects in AIP (mutated in Familial Isolated Pituitary Adenoma syndrome or FIPA), MEN1 (

UniToPatho, a labeled histopathological dataset for colorectal polyps classification and adenoma dysplasia grading [PDF]
, 2021Histopathological characterization of colorectal polyps allows to tailor patients' management and follow up with the ultimate aim of avoiding or promptly detecting an invasive carcinoma. Colorectal polyps characterization relies on the histological analysis of tissue samples to determine the polyps malignancy and dysplasia grade.

Pituitary Adenoma Volumetry with 3D Slicer [PDF]
(2012) PLoS ONE 7(12): e51788, 2012In this study, we present pituitary adenoma volumetry using the free and open source medical image computing platform for biomedical research: (3D) Slicer. Volumetric changes in cerebral pathologies like pituitary adenomas are a critical factor in treatment decisions by physicians and in general the volume is acquired manually.
