A 2019 update on TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas
Abstract
Thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenomas (TSH-omas) present with signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidism and they are characterized by elevated serum levels of free thyroid hormones with measurable TSH levels. TSH-omas are very infrequent, accounting for less than 1% of all pituitary adenomas, thus representing a very rare cause of hyperthyroidism. For this reason, data collected on these rare disorders are relatively few, but some new researches shed new light on the etiopathogenesis, the diagnosis and the treatment of such a remarkable disease. Since the same biochemical picture is present in the syndromes of thyroid hormone resistance (RTH), in particular in the form of pituitary RTH, failure in distinguishing these clinical entities may lead to improper patient management. Conversely, early diagnosis and correct treatment of TSH-omas may prevent the occurrence of neurological and endocrinological complications, thus leading to a better rate of cure. In the present short review article, the most relevant recent advances in the pathophysiology of TSH-omas are described.

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.
