[Endocrine prognosis of PRL-secreting pituitary adenomas. In 90 female cases (author's transl)]. 1980

P Aubourg, and D J Derome, and F Peillon, and C P Jedynak, and A Visot, and P Legentil, and G Guiot

This study based upon 90 cases of prolactinomas where hormonal and clinical results have been compared demonstrates: 1) a good correlation between a normal postoperative plasma PRL level (less than 30 ng/ml) and the cure of the amenorrhea galactorrhea syndrome (90% of the cases); 2) a good correlation between the cure of the patients and the preoperative plasma PRL level: below 200 ng/ml, 85% of the patients are cured compared to 24% only when the preoperative PRL plasma level is above 200 ng/ml.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008598 Menstruation The periodic shedding of the ENDOMETRIUM and associated menstrual bleeding in the MENSTRUAL CYCLE of humans and primates. Menstruation is due to the decline in circulating PROGESTERONE, and occurs at the late LUTEAL PHASE when LUTEOLYSIS of the CORPUS LUTEUM takes place.
D010911 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.

D011388 Prolactin A lactogenic hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). It is a polypeptide of approximately 23 kD. Besides its major action on lactation, in some species prolactin exerts effects on reproduction, maternal behavior, fat metabolism, immunomodulation and osmoregulation. Prolactin receptors are present in the mammary gland, hypothalamus, liver, ovary, testis, and prostate.
