Objective: Neurosurgery is one of the main therapies for pituitary tumors; optimising outcome
is highly desirable for the patient and the health system. We have analysed predictors of …

The authors present an update on the various treatment modalities and discuss
management strategies for prolactinomas. Prolactinomas are the most common type of …

In pituitary prolactinomas, serum prolactin (PRL) levels usually parallel the tumor size. We
conducted a retrospective study to determine differences in PRL production between men …

Prolactinomas are common tumors of the anterior pituitary gland. While conventional
therapies, including dopamine agonists, transsphenoidal surgery and radiotherapy, are …

The authors have reported data on a retrospective study, carried out in order to evaluate the
short-and the long-term follow-up results of transsphenoidal microsurgery for prolactin …

Prolactinomas are the most common secretory adenomas of pituitary origin. They typically
manifest with symptoms referable to their endocrinologic effects or, if of sufficient size, to …

Prolactinoma is the most common pituitary tumour in adults. Macroprolactinomas,
particularly in men, may occasionally exhibit a very aggressive clinical course as evidenced …

Although almost all pituitary tumors are benign adenomas, a surprisingly large number of
these tumors invade tissues outside of the pituitary gland. Such invasion, by itself, is not …

Prolactinoma is the most frequent pituitary adenoma type, accounting for 40–66% in
epidemiological studies [1]. The estimated prevalence in various populations ranges from …

Clinically nonfunctioning adenomas range from being completely asymptomatic, and
therefore detected either at autopsy or as incidental findings on head MRI or CT scans …
