Giant pituitary adenoma [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ 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

Abstract.The majority of pituitary adenomas occur sporadically, however, about 5% of all cases occur in a familial setting, of which over half are due to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN‐1) and Carney’s complex (CNC). Since the late 1990s we have described non‐MEN1/CNC familial pituitary tumours that include all tumour phenotypes, a condition ...

Diagnosis of Pituitary Adenoma Biopsies by Ultrahigh Resolution Optical Coherence Tomography Using Neuronal Networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
ObjectiveDespite advancements of intraoperative visualization, the difficulty to visually distinguish adenoma from adjacent pituitary gland due to textural similarities may lead to incomplete adenoma resection or impairment of pituitary function. The aim
