1. Pituitary metastasis of lung neuroendocrine carcinoma: case report and literature review
SUMMARY Metastasis to the pituitary gland is an unusual situation in clinical practice, but the frequency thereof is increasing due to the increased survival of cancer patients, and greater availability of imaging. In most cases, they are found between the sixth and seventh decades of life, as determined in image examination of patients with known malignant

2. Pituitary apoplexy: pathophysiology, diagnosis and management
Pituitary apoplexy is characterized by sudden increase in pituitary gland volume secondary to ischemia and/or necrosis, usually in a pituitary adenoma. Most cases occur during the 5th decade of life, predominantly in males and in previously unknown clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas. There are some predisposing factors as arterial hypertension, an

3. Relevância das variações anatômicas das cavidades nasais no acesso transesfenoidal endoscópico / Relevance of nasal anatomical variations for endoscopic transsphenoidal approach
Introdução: As cavidades nasais constituem a via de acesso à hipófise na cirurgia transesfenoidal endoscópica. Deste modo, alterações naturais ou adquiridas da anatomia nasal podem prejudicar a cirurgia. Objetivos: Estudar as variações anatômicas das cavidades nasais, principalmente desvio do septo, correlacionando-as com a visibilidade no acesso t

4. Expressão dos genes relacionados à apoptose, Bcl-2, bax, e caspase-3 nos adenomas hipofisários clinicamente não funcionantes e seu potencial como marcador do comportamento tumoral / Bcl-2, bax and caspase-3 apoptosis related genes expression in nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma and their role as potential markers of tumor behavior
Pituitary adenomas are benign, slow-growing tumors that arise in the sella turcica and account for 10% to 15% of all intracranial tumors. Non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA) account for around one third of all pituitary adenomas. NFPA do not clinically present as hormonal syndromes and are generally diagnosed as macroadenomas due to marked neurological
