Abstract

Posterior pituitary tumors (PPT) are rare, benign tumors but may lead to compromised hypothalamic and pituitary function. A new study by Kremenevski et al. presents a single institution experience of these tumors, namely, pituicytomas, spindle cell oncocytomas, and granular cell tumors. They incorporate the revised 2022 WHO classification and highlight the preoperative and postoperative endocrine, metabolic, and radiologic outcomes of PPT. This study adds to our knowledge in this rare subset of tumors and underscores the need for ongoing surveillance for hypopituitarism and hypothalamic obesity.

垂体后叶肿瘤：一个独立的实体。

垂体后叶肿瘤（PPT）是罕见的良性肿瘤，但可能导致下丘脑和垂体功能受损。Kremenevski等人的一项新研究提出了这些肿瘤的单一机构经验，即垂体细胞瘤、梭形细胞癌和颗粒细胞瘤。它们纳入了经修订的2022年世卫组织分类，并强调了PPT的术前和术后内分泌、代谢和放射学结果。这项研究增加了我们对这一罕见肿瘤亚群的认识，并强调了对垂体功能低下和下丘脑肥胖进行持续监测的必要性。
