The Pituitary in Focus: Integrated Approaches to Etiology, Pathophysiology, and Complication Management
Synopsis
This book serves as a supplemental reference for advancing both the science and practice of pituitary medicine. The book thereby provides clinicians and investigators with an integrated approach to the diagnosis, pathophysiology, and management of pituitary disorders. From hormone-secreting adenomas to incidentalomas, from pituitary apoplexy to long-term hypopituitarism, the book addresses the spectrum of pituitary conditions across all age groups. Readers will gain insight into advances in molecular genetics, imaging technologies, and minimally invasive surgical techniques, as well as emerging therapies for refractory and aggressive tumors.
Authored by leading global experts and edited by Dr. Maleeha Ahmad, FRCS, FACS, a practicing, fellowship-trained neurosurgeon with a decade of expertise in complex pituitary and skull base pathology, this reference aims to serve as a practical resource for neurosurgeons, endocrinologists, radiologists, pathologists, and allied professionals engaged in pituitary medicine. Whether navigating complex diagnostic dilemmas or refining operative strategies, this book serves as an essential companion text for advancing the evolving science and art of pituitary care.
