Postoperative weight gain following pituitary tumor surgery requires treatment through medications, surgery, or other methods. If the condition is caused by excessive adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion, serum receptor inhibitors should be used. If there is abnormal thyroid function, appropriate medication must be administered promptly. In cases of large pituitary tumors, which may damage surrounding brain tissue and skull structures, surgical intervention is necessary to relieve symptoms.
