  • Title: Prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas: CT appearance in diffuse invasion.
    Author: Virapongse C, Bhimani S, Sarwar M, Greenberg A, Kim J.
    Journal: Radiology; 1984 Aug; 152(2):447-51. PubMed ID: 6739813.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe 2 diffusely invasive prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas which produced marked destruction of the base of the skull thought to be diagnostic of chordoma on computed tomography (CT). Failure to recognize this pattern led to biopsy, which was diagnostic. The authors emphasize the need to recognize this rare growth pattern of diffusely invasive pituitary adenoma on CT.
