    Extractions: Medical Encyclopedia Encyclopedia Disease H -> Hypopituitarism Hypopituitarism Alternate Names: Pituitary insufficiency Causes and Risks: The pituitary gland is a small structure that is located at the base of the brain. It is attached by a stalk to the hypothalamus , an area of the brain that controls the function of the pituitary gland. The hormones secreted by the pituitary and their functions are: growth hormone (GH), which stimulates growth of tissues and bone thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), which stimulates the thyroid gland to secrete hormones that affect body metabolism adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which stimulates the adrenal gland to secrete hormones that affect metabolism prolactin , which stimulates female breast development and milk production luteinizing hormone (LH), which controls sexual function in males and females follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), which controls sexual function in males and females melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH), which controls pigmentation of the skin

The resulting symptoms depend on which hormones are no longer being produced by the gland. Because the pituitary gland affects the other endocrine organs, effects of hypopituitarism may be gradual or sudden and dramatic.

(luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone) In premenopausal women, this leads to absent menstrual cycles, infertility, vaginal dryness, and loss of some female characteristics. In men, this deficiency leads to impotence, shriveling of testes, decreased sperm production, infertility, and loss of some male characteristics. insufficient growth hormone production This usually produces no symptoms in adults. In children, this deficiency can lead to stunted growth and dwarfism.

    Extractions: Endocrinology Hypopituitarism, also called an underactive pituitary gland, is a condition that affects the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland - usually resulting in a partial or complete loss of functioning of that lobe. The resulting symptoms depend on which hormones are no longer being produced by the gland. Because the pituitary gland affects the other endocrine organs, effects of hypopituitarism may be gradual or sudden and dramatic. Symptoms vary depending on what hormones are insufficiently produced by the pituitary gland. The following are common symptoms associated with reduced production of certain hormones: insufficient gonadotropins production (luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone) In premenopausal women, this leads to absent menstrual cycles, infertility, vaginal dryness, and loss of some female characteristics. In men, this deficiency leads to impotence, shriveling of testes, decreased sperm production, infertility, and loss of some male characteristics.

A 21 year-old woman of Indian descent, but UK born and bread presented with a two-year history of intermittent headaches, hot flushes, polydipsia, nocturia and amenorrhoea. One year previously she had been diagnosed with primary hypothyroidism with a TSH of 7.3 and FT4 of 6.5. She was treated with thyroxine but remained amenorrhoeic. Subsequent evaluation revealed TSH, LH, and FSH deficiency with evidence of cranial diabetes insipidus. An MRI scan of the pituitary gland showed an enlarged pituitary with a necrotic centre and pituitary stalk thickening. Subsequent trans-sphenoidal exploration revealed a sterile abscess, which was drained. PCR with m. tuberculosis specific amplimers from the abscess was positive. No acid-fast bacilli were isolated and culture remained sterile. Histological sections showed an avascular tissue containing a dense reticulin nework with lymphocytes and CD68 positive macrophages. Serum ANCA, ACE and ANA were all negative.

    Extractions: Endocrine Abstracts previous abstract next abstract Abstract Medical therapy of macroprolactinomas in men: (1) prevalence of hypopituitarism at diagnosis and (2) proportion of cases exhibiting recovery of pituitary function L Sibal , P Ugwu , P Kendall-Taylor , S Ball , RA James Department of Endocrinology, Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK; Department of Medicine, School of Clinical Medical Sciences, University of Newcastle, UK. DISCUSSION: The prevalence of ACTH and/or TSH deficiency in men with macroprolactinomas is 32% at diagnosis. If interval reassessments are performed over several years of treatment, recovery of corticotropic and/or thyrotropic function is demonstrable in more than half of these patients. Without adequately reassessment, such patients might be unnecessarily maintained on long-term thyroxine and/or glucocorticoid therapy. Potential complications of glucocorticoid therapy include osteoporosis, weight gain, insulin resistance and adrenal suppression, so consigning a patient to indefinite therapy should not be undertaken lightly.

    Extractions: Hypofunction of the pituitary may be caused by lesions in the anterior lobe of the pituitary or in the hypothalamus. Traumatic Ischaemic Infectious Granulomatous disease Autoimmune Iatrogenic This syndrome is caused by ischaemic necrosis in the anterior pituitary Classically, this follows post-partum haemorrhage , when the pituitary, enlarged twofold during pregnancy, is rendered ischaemic in hypovolaemic shock. This may kill 95 - 99% of the cells of the anterior pituitary, but rarely affects the posterior pituitary which is more resistant to ischaemic damage.
