概括
非功能性垂体腺瘤 (NFPA) 经常被偶然发现,通常呈现为较大的瘤,伴有较少的相关症状,如垂体缺陷症. 提高意识可能会导致这些细胞区域瘤的早期检测.
科学领域:
- 神经内分泌学神经内分泌学
- 神经外科 神经外科
- 在瘤学瘤学.
背景情况:
- 非功能性垂体腺瘤 (NFPA) 是常见的细胞区域瘤.
- 由于压缩症状或偶然通过脑成像,NFPA通常被诊断为NFPA.
研究的目的:
- 在十年内确定偶然NFPA诊断的流行率.
- 在偶然和症状诊断的NFPA之间比较临床,分析和治疗差异.
- 评估偶然和症状诊断的NFPA之间的病理差异.
主要方法:
- 对18岁或以上明显NFPA患者的回顾性分析.
- 纳入标准包括基于病变大小的特定益生素水平值.
- 患者被分为偶发性或症状性诊断组.
主要成果:
- 在119名患者中,47.1%的NFPA被偶然诊断为NFPA.
- 偶发性NFPA与症状性NFPA相比,较少发生hypopituitarism (41.1%) 的情况 (66.7%).
- 偶然的NFPA更常见于宏腺瘤 (87.4%) 和较少接受手术 (50%),而不是症状病例 (75.8%).
结论:
- NFPA通常是偶然诊断的,许多人表现出微妙的症状.
- 偶然诊断的NFPA通常是宏腺瘤,不太可能与hypopituitarism有关.
- 增强的临床怀疑和知识可以促进NFPA的早期检测.

The Pituitary Gland
6.9K
The pituitary is a small endocrine organ in the sphenoid bone under the hypothalamus. Primarily, the pituitary in adults has two distinct anatomical and functional regions— the anterior and posterior lobes. During human fetal development, a third pituitary gland region called the pars intermedia atrophies and disappears. However, some of its cells migrate and exist adjacent to the anterior pituitary in adults.

Hormones of the Pituitary Gland
6.7K
The small, pea-sized pituitary gland is located at the base of the brain. It is crucial in regulating various bodily functions, from growth to reproduction. The gland is divided into the anterior lobe and the posterior lobe. The secretory cell clusters in the pars distalis of the anterior pituitary lobe are controlled by hypothalamic regulators and synthesize six primary hormones.
The most abundantly secreted hormone from the anterior lobe is the growth hormone, which controls overall growth by...
