How is pituitary adenoma treated?
Disease description:
After hospital examinations, I was diagnosed with a pituitary adenoma. How can this condition be treated? What are the treatment options for pituitary adenoma?
Pituitary adenomas are treated through surgery, medication, and other methods. Pituitary adenoma is a common benign intracranial tumor. The type and size of the pituitary tumor influence the patient's treatment approach. For prolactin-secreting pituitary microadenomas, treatment options include bromocriptine, neuroendoscopic surgery, and microsurgery. For other types of pituitary microadenomas, surgical treatment is the first choice.
