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

Molecular network study of pituitary adenomas

open access: yes, 2020
Pituitary adenomas are a category of neoplasms with a high degree of heterogeneity that occur in the central regulatory organ pituitary, which plays important roles in the hypothalamus–pituitary-targeted organ axis systems that impact on important ...

Preoperative Fasting C-Peptide Acts as a Promising Predictor of Improved Glucose Tolerance in Patients With Acromegaly After Transsphenoidal Surgery: A Retrospective Study of 64 Cases From a Large Pituitary Center in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Purpose: Abnormal glucose metabolism is one of the most frequent acromegaly complications. Improvement of glucose metabolism can be observed only in half of acromegaly patients after surgery.

Case Report: A Case of Pituitary Adenoma Producing Growth Hormone and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone Simultaneously

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
BackgroundPituitary adenoma producing growth hormone (GH) or thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is characterized by various specific symptoms and/or findings. However, the frequency of pituitary adenoma producing both hormones is relatively low.

Does an Analysis of the Pulsatile Secretion Pattern of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Predict the Result of Transsphenoidal Surgery in Cushing’s Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Reversibility of Cardiac Involvement in Acromegaly Patients After Surgery: 12-Month Follow-up Using Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
PurposeCardiac comorbidity is one of the leading causes of death among acromegaly patients. We aimed to investigate the reversibility of acromegalic cardiac involvement after surgical treatment using the gold standard method, cardiovascular magnetic ...

The 'incidentaloma' of the pituitary gland. Is neurosurgery required? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We describe a series of 18 patients with an intrasellar mass incidentally discovered by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. The average size of the mass was 13 mm, with a range from 5 to 25 mm.

Vascular endothelial growth factor production and regulation in rodent and human pituitary tumor cells in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Angiogenesis, the formation of a new blood supply, is an essential step in tumorigenesis. Although vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to be a very potent angiogenic factor in most solid tumors, little is known about its production and ...
