Analysis of risk factors of pituitary neoplasms invading the sphenoidal sinus. [PDF]
High-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

Pituitary metastases from neuroendocrine neoplasms: case report and narrative review [PDF]
Abstract 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 ...

Application of Genetic Engineering Technologies for the Study of Pituitary Development and Neoplasms
Our studies and review of the literature reported by other investigators indicate the essential use of genetic engineering technology to study the physiologic and pathologic mechanisms of transcription of hormone production and the mechanisms of secretion of appropriate bioactive peptides from the prohormones in the endocrine cells which are equipped ...
