Malignant prolactinomas

Neurosurgery, 1991
Abstract Six cases of malignant prolactinoma have been reported; an additional two cases are presented here and the literature is reviewed.

Management of Prolactinomas

Annual Review of Medicine, 1989
Prolactinomas are the most common of the hormone-secreting pituitary tumors and must be distinguished from nonsecreting tumors causing hyperprolactinemia by hypothalamic or stalk dysfunction. For both micro- and macroadenomas, dopamine agonists appear to be the treatment of choice, transsphenoidal surgery being reserved for nonresponders.

Prolactinoma

2017
Prolactinomas account for approximately 50% of all pituitary adenomas coming to medical attention and are an important cause of hypogonadism and infertility. They may also be responsible for mass effects. Nevertheless, prolactinomas are not the only case of hyperprolactinemia: many physiological and pathological conditions (pregnancy, medications ...
