Radiological Assessment of Pituitary Hyperplasia in Newly Diagnosed Cases of Primary Hypothyroidism after Hormone Therapy: A Longitudinal Study [PDF]
Introduction: With long-standing hypothyroidism, thyrotrophin hyperplasia can result in the enlargement of the pituitary gland. Regression of the hyperplasia has been shown to occur following adequate treatment of primary hypothyroidism with hormone ...
