This text provides a detailed update on current diagnostic and therapeutic techniques useful in the management of a broad spectrum of pituitary disorders. The contents reflect the multidisciplinary approach needed for patients with disorders of the pituitary gland, with contributions from both endocrinologists and neurosurgeons, as well as specialty contributions from radiologists, ophthalmologists, pathologists, radiation oncologists, and neurologists. The book focuses on each pituitary tumor subtype, and contains additional chapters related to other lesions of the sella, including tumor management during pregnancy and in the pediatric age group.
