Headache, Hyperprolactinemia, and Prolactinomas
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1987The present study was undertaken to investigate whether headache in women with nonpuerperal hyperprolactinemia was related to elevated serum prolactin (PRL) levels or the presence of a PRL-secreting pituitary adenoma. The subjects were 469 women seen initially during the period of 1973 to 1979 at four clinical centers with the complaints of secondary ...

Sir .—I read with great interest the report by Huseman and colleagues 1 on a child with prolactinoma. The letter was extremely valuable in pointing the efficacy of bromocriptine therapy even in large tumors. It is reassuring to read that this conservative approach to treatment is as efficacious in children as it is in adults.

Hyperprolactinemia and prolactinoma
2014Prolactinomas are the most frequent pituitary adenomas. In patients with prolactinomas the primary cause of hyperprolactinemia is excessive and autonomic production of prolactin by lactotroph cells. In other conditions, except in case of macroprolactinemia, hyperprolactinemia is secondary to circumstances that stimulate secretion of prolactin by ...

Publisher Summary Prolactinomas are classified on a clinical basis by size—microadenomas are defined as less than 10 mm in diameter; macroadenomas are greater than 10 mm in diameter. Giant prolactinomas are defined as greater than 4 cm in diameter and those with more than 2 cm of suprasellar extension.
