Tumors of the Pituitary Gland

Lloyd, Ricardo V., Scheithauer, Bernd W., Horvath, Eva, Kovacs, Kalman·2009·Surgical Pathology of Endocrine and Neuroendocrine Tumors

Abstract

Anterior pituitary tumors are clonal proliferation of pituitary cells. They usually consist of one cell type, although some adenomas consist of more than one cell type. Pituitary tumors can be characterized by broad spectrum markers such as synaptophysin and chromogranin. Reticulin histochemical staining is useful in separating normal hyperplastic and neoplastic pituitary tissues. Electron microscopy is a powerful tool to help separate various subtypes of adenomas including sparsely and densely granulated growth hormone adenomas and different subtypes of silent ACTH adenomas. The major types of pituitary adenomas include GH, PRL, ACTH, TSH, gonadotroph (FSH/LH), and null cell adenomas. A combination of hematoxylin and eosin staining, immunohistochemistry, and electron microscopic studies are the most comprehensive ways of classifying pituitary tumors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
