Current Opinion in Oncology, 1994
This review focuses on recent developments in the treatment of pituitary adenomas. Current treatments include both transcranial and transsphenoidal surgery, the medical treatment specifically for endocrinopathies, and finally, radiation treatments including conventional radiation as well as stereotactic radiosurgery. All these modalities are reviewed.

Neurosurgical Review, 1985
Based on 880 pituitary adenomas operated upon between 1972 and 1982 the diagnostic and therapeutical strategy in recurrences is discussed. The incidence of reoperations was 7.75%, 3.7% in hormonally inactive and 4.1% in hormonally active recurrences.

Neurosurgery, 1995
Previous series of pediatric pituitary adenomas have been small and have not been analyzed by age group. We analyzed the frequency, manifestation, course, and biology of these tumors before, during, and after puberty in 136 children younger than 20 years old at surgery, identified by review of 2230 patients treated from 1969 to 1993.

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1981
✓ Pituitary glands from 500 consecutive autopsies were reviewed and the findings correlated with clinical symptomatology. Occult pituitary adenomas were identified in 42 pituitary glands (8.5%). In only one case was a pituitary lesion clinically questioned, but specific hypophyseal function studies were not performed.

Child's Nervous System, 2019
Pediatric pituitary adenomas are a rare medical entity that makes up a small portion of intracranial tumors in children and adolescents. Although benign, the majority of these lesions are secreting functional tumors with the potential for physiological sequela that can profoundly affect a child's development.In this review, we discuss the medical and ...

Pituitary adenomas comprise approximately 10% to 20% of all central nervous system neoplasms whereas autopsy series have suggested that the incidence of pituitary adenoma in the general population may approach 25%. Several treatment modalities are used in the treatment of pituitary adenomas, including observation, surgery, medical intervention, and ...

Surgical Neurology, 1983
The clinical, radiologic, and autopsy findings of an unusually large pituitary adenoma are described. A review of the literature revealed such large tumors to be quite rare.

SUMMARYWe report here four cases representing different forms of ectopic pituitary adenomas localized: (1) in the nasal cavity, (2) in the sphenoidal sinus, (3) on the sphenoidal wing and (4) on the petrous temporal bone. Ectopic pituitary adenomas may probably occur in extrasellar pituitary tissue deposited along the route of fetal development or as a

Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2010
Pituitary adenomas are benign intracranial neoplasms that present a major clinical concern because of hormonal overproduction or compression symptoms of adjacent structures. Most arise in a sporadic setting with a small percentage developing as a part of familial syndromes such as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), Carney complex (CNC), and ...

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1993
Because adenomas of the pituitary are present in 10% to 20% of healthy individuals, the finding of incidental sellar lesions on computed tomography scanning or magnetic resonance imaging has become relatively common. Hyperfunctioning of such lesions can be excluded clinically and by hormonal screening.
