Pituitary metastases from neuroendocrine neoplasms: case report and narrative review [PDF]
Pituitary, 2021Abstract Purpose Pituitary metastases (PM) are uncommon findings and are mainly derived from breast and lung cancers. No extensive review of PM from neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) is on record. Here we describe a clinical case of PM from pancreatic NEN and review the clinical features of PM from NENs reported in the ...

Analysis of risk factors of pituitary neoplasms invading the sphenoidal sinus. [PDF]
Medicine (Baltimore), 2023High-resolution computed tomography (HR-CT) can more effectively discern the relationship between pituitary neoplasms (PNs) and neighboring anatomical structures. Moreover, pathological features can facilitate a more accurate determination of the growth pattern of PNs. Consequently, integrating imaging and pathological data might enhance our predictive
