Presenting Features in 269 Patients With Clinically Nonfunctioning Pituitary Adenomas Enrolled in a Prospective Study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of the Endocrine Society"
DOI: 10.1210/jendso/bvaa021
Abstract: Abstract Context Clinically nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (CNFPAs) typically remain undetected until mass effect symptoms develop. However, currently, head imaging is performed commonly for many other indications, which may increase incidental discovery of CNFPAs. Since current… read more here.

DOI: 10.2176/nmc.oa.2020-0378
Abstract: The efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) has been well established for postoperative residual and recurrent nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs). However, the risk of visual impairment due to SRT for lesions adjacent to the optic pathways… read more here.
