DOI: 10.1530/ec-20-0414
Abstract: PURPOSE To evaluate whether pre-surgical treatment using long-acting somatostatin receptor ligands (SRL) may change pituitary tumor consistency and improve surgical outcome in GH-secreting pituitary macroadenomas. METHODS Retrospective study of 40 patients with GH-secreting pituitary macroadenomas… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.922626
Abstract: Purpose Tumor consistency is important for pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) resection to improve surgical outcomes. In this study, we evaluated the T2-WI of PitNETs and defined a specific T2-WI signaling manifestation, the “Mosaic sign,” to… read more here.
