Phenoperidine is a potent opioid analgesic that was synthesized in the 1950s. It is structurally similar to fentanyl but has a longer duration of action. Phenoperidine has been studied for its analgesic and sedative effects, and it has been used clinically in the past. However, its use has been limited due to its potential for abuse and its side effects, including respiratory depression and seizures. Research on phenoperidine has focused on understanding its mechanism of action, its potential for abuse, and its therapeutic applications. It has also been studied as a potential treatment for pain in cancer patients and for pain associated with surgery. Phenoperidine's unique pharmacological profile has prompted interest in its potential for therapeutic use. It has been investigated for its ability to provide analgesia with minimal sedation, which could be beneficial in certain clinical settings. Additionally, research has explored its use in combination with other medications to enhance pain relief and reduce side effects.'
Phenoperidine: A narcotic analgesic partly metabolized to meperidine in the liver. It is similar to morphine in action and used for neuroleptanalgesia, usually with droperidol.

Pituitary Neoplasms Neoplasms which arise from or metastasize to the PITUITARY GLAND. The majority of pituitary neoplasms are adenomas, which are divided into non-secreting and secreting forms. Hormone producing forms are further classified by the type of hormone they secrete. Pituitary adenomas may also be characterized by their staining properties (see ADENOMA, BASOPHIL; ADENOMA, ACIDOPHIL; and ADENOMA, CHROMOPHOBE). Pituitary tumors may compress adjacent structures, including the HYPOTHALAMUS, several CRANIAL NERVES, and the OPTIC CHIASM.

Craniopharyngioma A benign pituitary-region neoplasm that originates from Rathke's pouch. The two major histologic and clinical subtypes are adamantinous (or classical) craniopharyngioma and papillary craniopharyngioma.

The cystic cavity is filled with a black viscous substance and histologically the tumor is composed of adamantinomatous epithelium and areas of calcification and necrosis. Papillary craniopharyngiomas occur in adults, and histologically feature a squamous epithelium with papillations. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1998, Ch14, p50) | 0 | 1.94 | 1 | 0 |
