Pituitary Diseases and Bone

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2015
Pituitary hormones have direct and indirect effects on bone remodeling, and skeletal fragility is a frequent complication of pituitary diseases. Fragility fractures may occur in many patients with prolactinomas, acromegaly, Cushing disease, and hypopituitarism.

Pituitary Gland Diseases

2010
Excessive secretion of pituitary hormones, as well as their deficiency, may cause a constellation of clinical and pathological manifestations involving major organ systems of the body, including the skin. There are no specific cutaneous signs or symptoms that are pathognomonic for the main manifestations of pituitary gland diseases such as ...

Pituitary disease and pregnancy

Endocrinología, Diabetes y Nutrición (English ed.), 2021
Pregnancy results in a significant change in both pituitary gland size and function. Due to this physiological adaptation, the diagnosis and management of pituitary diseases during pregnancy represents a particularly complex challenge. The presence of a functioning pituitary adenoma may be harmful to the health of the mother and fetus, and scientific ...

Pituitary Diseases

2019
Abstract Chapter 80 discusses pituitary diseases. Acromegaly and Cushing disease are the 2 pituitary diseases with the most significant effects on the musculoskeletal system. Acromegaly results in excess growth hormone with gradual bone and soft tissue overgrowth in adults.

Mortality and pituitary disease

Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2012
Outcome data from large series confirm increased mortality of patients with pituitary tumours, predominantly due to vascular disease. Control of cortisol secretion and growth hormone (GH) hypersecretion (together with cardiovascular risk factor reduction) is key in the normalisation of mortality rates in patients with Cushing's disease and acromegaly ...

Cushing's disease: Pituitary imaging

Australasian Radiology, 1994
SUMMARYFourteen patients with adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)‐dependent hypercortisolism underwent pituitary scanning with computed axial tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Computed tomography revealed pituitary macroadenomas in two patients, pituitary hyperplasia in one and a suspicion of pituitary microadenoma in one.

Pituitary disease.

Australian family physician, 1999
Pituitary disease is relatively uncommon, but because failure to recognise and manage it correctly has such severe repercussions, it has an importance out of proportion to its prevalence.Pituitary disease may result in findings due to hormone excess or hormone deficiency.

Pituitary diseases in pregnancy

Seminars in Perinatology, 1998
Pituitary adenomas are the most common pituitary disorder affecting pregnancy, and prolactinomas are the most common of the hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas. Hyperprolactinemia must be corrected to allow ovulation and fertility. Bromocriptine has been shown to be safe for use during early gestation. There is less than a 2% risk of microprolactinoma

Diseases of the Pituitary

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1994
This article reviews current understanding of the pathology and pathogenesis of pituitary diseases. It emphasizes the importance of morphologic analysis in the diagnostic sphere. The investigation of structure-function correlations in pituitary adenomas combined with a greater understanding of the molecular basis of disease will lead to new discoveries
