Summary

Pituitary adenomas (PA) can unexpectedly change their function over time, sometimes switching from hormone-producing to non-functioning or altering their hormonal expression. Lifelong monitoring is crucial for detecting these pituitary tumor transformations.

Tumor Progression

Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
