  • Title: Management of pituitary tumors.
    Author: Post KD, Muraszko K.
    Journal: Neurol Clin; 1986 Nov; 4(4):801-31. PubMed ID: 3540586.
    Abstract:
    Pituitary adenomas represent the only true adenomas of the cranial cavity. In 1000 asymptomatic pituitary glands examined at autopsy, there was a 22.4 per cent incidence of undetected microadenomas. Advances in diagnostic endocrinology, in radiologic imaging, and in surgical and medical treatments have brought many more patients to the attention of the authors. Over the last 10 years, their treatment approaches have evolved to those presented in this article.
