Giant prolactinoma causing cranio-cervical junction instability: a case report.

British journal of neurosurgery, 2011, Volume: 25, Issue:6

Prolactinomas are common secretory pituitary tumours, usually managed with dopamine agonists. There have previously been case reports of rarer giant prolactinomas causing invasion of surrounding structures. We describe a case report of an exceptionally aggressive giant prolactinoma that eroded the occipital condyles causing cranio-cervical joint instability mandating surgical fixation.
