Epidemiology of Pituitary Tumours: Prevalence of Associated Neoplasia

NCT03973450 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 400

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study aims to update current knowledge about the epidemiology of pituitary tumours (PiT), based on the wide body of scientific literature on new familial and/or syndromic forms. Although inherited predisposition is increasingly recognized, its clinical relevance in unselected series of PiT patients has not been specifically addressed. In addition, it is likely that further recognition of peculiar associations between PiT and other endocrine and/or non-endocrine neoplasia will further increase the spectrum of syndromic forms. Since the identification of inherited forms of PiT may have significant clinical implications in terms of patients management and familial screening, we aim to collect any relevant information in order to estimate their prevalence in a large unselected series of PiT patients and provide new clues for a modern clinical approach to these patients.
