Radiosurgery for pituitary adenomas
Clinical Endocrinology, 2004The role of irradiation in the management of pituitary adenomas is not well defined. Nevertheless, patients with residual or recurrent tumours have been treated with conventional external-beam radiotherapy and more recently with highprecision stereotactic techniques of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT).

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.

Double pituitary adenomas represent up to 2.6 % of pituitary adenomas in large surgical series and up to 3.3 % of patients with Cushing's disease have been found to have double or multiple pituitary adenomas. We report the case of a 60-year-old male patient whose medical history began in 2002 with erectile dysfunction; hyperprolactinemia was found and ...
