DOI: 10.1007/978-3-030-59038-3_7
Abstract: Pituitary tumors develop within a macroenvironment and microenvironment that favor their overall survival. Given the pituitary gland's unique anatomic, histological, and physiological properties, the role of the TME in the pituitary tumors is central. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11154-019-09531-x
Abstract: Pituitary adenomas are considered benign tumors, but approximately 10% of them can have an aggressive behavior and more rarely (0.2%) can present metastasis, being classified as pituitary carcinomas. Aggressive adenomas are generally large and invasive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11154-020-09554-9
Abstract: Aggressive pituitary tumors comprise a rare but challenging subset of pituitary tumors. A major issue currently is the absence of a holistic definition that reliably identifies these tumors in a prospective manner. Although comprehensive evaluation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecl.2019.05.004
Abstract: Pituitary adenomas are common. The impact of pituitary tumors on fertility are mainly caused by oversecretion and/or undersecretion of pituitary hormones or compression of pituitary stalk and normal pituitary tissue by the tumor. Diagnosing and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2017.05.070
Abstract: BACKGROUND Rathke cleft cysts (RCCs) and pituitary adenomas (PAs) are thought to have a common embryonic ancestry; however, PAs with a concomitant RCC inside the sella turcica are rarely observed. Ectopic pituitary tumors are also… read more here.
