prednisolone and Pituitary Neoplasms

prednisolone has been researched along with Pituitary Neoplasms in 18 studies

Prednisolone: A glucocorticoid with the general properties of the corticosteroids. It is the drug of choice for all conditions in which routine systemic corticosteroid therapy is indicated, except adrenal deficiency states.
prednisolone : A glucocorticoid that is prednisone in which the oxo group at position 11 has been reduced to the corresponding beta-hydroxy group. It is a drug metabolite of prednisone.

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. Chiasmal compression may result in bitemporal HEMIANOPSIA.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" We report a 38-year-old man with non-secreting pituitary adenoma who developed bilateral AVN while on a very small dose of oral prednisolone for secondary adrenal insufficiency after surgery for pituitary adenoma."3.83Bilateral femoral head avascular necrosis with a very low dose of oral corticosteroid used for panhypopituitarism. ( Aggarwal, A; Dharmshaktu, P; Dutta, D; Kulshreshtha, B, 2016)
"She had a pituitary adenoma, but the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) concentration was within the normal range."1.56Follicle-stimulating Hormone-secreting Pituitary Adenoma Accompanied by Painful Thyroiditis. ( Ichijo, M; Inoshita, N; Kasai, T; Kitamura, K; Tsuchiya, K; Yamada, S; Yoshimoto, H, 2020)
"Adipsic diabetes insipidus is an infrequent disease which may be associated with craniopharyngioma."1.51Adipsic diabetes insipidus secondary to craniopharyngioma resection. ( Flórez Romero, A; Millán, HA; Naranjo, JA; Pérez, MA, 2019)
"Diagnosis of a giant macroprolactinoma was made and cabergoline was started."1.35Misdiagnosis due to the hook effect in prolactin assay. ( Arda, N; Comlekci, A; Men, S; Yener, S; Yesil, S, 2008)
"While hyponatremia is known to occur in patients with hypopituitarism, severe hyponatremia occurring as the presenting feature of hypopituitarism is very rare."1.31Severe hyponatremia as the presenting feature of clinically non-functional pituitary adenoma with hypopituitarism.
