TL;DR

DPAs involving a corticotroph component should be considered as a possible explanation for persistent hypercortisolism after TSS when the resected lesion is negative for ACTH and T-PIT and the role of adjunctive molecular imaging remains preliminary.

EP1094 - ECE_3951 - Clinical course of non-functioning pituitary adenomas: insights from a retrospective single-center study

Surgical resection is the most reliable predictor of long-term tumor control, while proliferative markers appear to have limited prognostic value, and active surveillance is a safe approach for asymptomatic patients, while surgery remains the treatment of choice in symptomatic tumors or those showing growth.

Postoperative Pituitary MRI Findings in Acromegaly: A Pictorial Review

Acromegaly is almost always caused by a growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma, and long-term cure depends on complete surgical resection and accurate detection of residual or recurrent disease on surveillance imaging. This pictorial review focuses on the 3–6-month postoperative interval, when routine surveillance...

Prevalence and clinical relevance of negative histology after transsphenoidal surgery for pituitary neuroendocrine tumors

Purpose Negative histology (NH), defined as normal pituitary tissue without histopathological evidence of tumor despite clinical, biochemical and radiological or functional evidence of a pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET), is well described in Cushing’s disease but poorly characterized in other subtypes. We assess...

A retrospective review of the clinical, biochemical and radiological spectrum of adrenal incidentalomas at Tygerberg Academic Hospital, South Africa.

It was demonstrated that PCC and cortisol-producing adenomas were the most common functional tumours in patients diagnosed with AI at Tygerberg Hospital, in contrast to most international studies, which show MACS as the most common functional AI.
