Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism Before and After Transsphenoidal Surgery for Non-Functioning Pituitary Adenoma. [PDF]
Clin Endocrinol (Oxf)ABSTRACT Objective The effect of transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) on the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axis in patients with non‐functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA) is underexplored, especially in women. Our aim was to investigate the HPG axis function before and after TSS, its association with quality of life (QoL), and to identify factors that ...

Does an Analysis of the Pulsatile Secretion Pattern of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Predict the Result of Transsphenoidal Surgery in Cushing’s Disease. [PDF]
, 1993 The endocrinological, surgical, and histological findings of patients with ACTH-dependent Cushing's disease were correlated with the pulsatile secretion pattern of ACTH and cortisol and the outcome after transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.
