A Case of Thyrotropin-Secreting Pituitary Adenoma (TSH-oma)
Thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenomas (TSHomas) are rare tumors and represent about 1-2% of all pituitary adenomas (prevalence is about one case per million) and cause secondary or central hyperthyroidism. The number of reported cases of TSH-omas tripled in the last decade. The increased number of reported cases resulted principally from the introduction of ultrasensitive immunometric assay ...
متن کاملTSH-Secreting Pituitary Adenoma: Current Management and Review.
The neurosurgical literature contains little information about the current management of patients with thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)-secreting pituitary adenomas or about the usefulness of the somatostatin analogue octreotide in such cases. While TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas are rare, our review and illustrative case demonstrate the effectiveness of pretreating patients with octreotide ...
متن کاملThyroid storm induced by TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma: a case report.
Thyroid stimulating hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas (TSHomas) are uncommon tumors of the anterior pituitary gland. Patients with TSHomas may present with hyperthyroidism, but the incidence of thyroid storm due to TSHomas has yet to be determined. We report a rare case of thyroid storm caused by TSHoma in a 54-year-old woman. Preoperatively she had symptoms of excessive sweating and palpita...
متن کاملGonadotropin secreting pituitary adenoma associated with erythrocytosis: case report and literature review.
BACKGROUND Most pituitary adenomas with FSH- or LH-positive immunohistochemistry are endocrinologically silent, and neurological symptoms due to their large volume are the first clinical signs; they are rarely reported to be secreting gonadotropins, this usually occurring in cases with clinical endocrine findings. Gonadotropinomas are often treated surgically because they are unresponsive to co...
متن کاملShort-term preoperative octreotide treatment for TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma.
Preoperative control of hyperthyroidism in patients with TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas (TSHoma) may avoid perioperative thyroid storm. Perioperative administration of octreotide may control hyperthyroidism, as well as shrink tumor size. The effects of preoperative octreotide treatment were assessed in a large number of patients with TSHomas. Of 81 patients who underwent surgery for TSHoma at...
