Postburn galactorrhea, although relatively uncommon, is a complex problem to treat. Three of 25 female premenopausal patients who were admitted during the years 1995 to 2001 with more than 40% TBSA burns developed this problem. All three patients were obese according to body mass index and other
Four female patients were found to have microadenomas and high prolactin levels, but the symptoms of the syndrome varied among the patients. Three of four patients had overt galactorrhea, obesity, and amenorrhea. One patient was postmenopausal, and another showed menstrual irregularities. Two
There is a paucity of data describing long-term outcomes of paediatric patients with pituitary adenoma. In this report we describe clinical features, treatment and outcomes of a paediatric cohort.Retrospective cohort study.24 We report herein a case of a 30 year old male patient who consulted for a long standing obesity since childhood. Clinical examination reveals the presence of hypogonadism and gynecomastia without galactorrhea. Endocrine assessment showed an hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism with a moderate
A 12-year-old with galactorrhea is presented. He was in early puberty, had gynecomastia, and was markedly obese. Roentgenograms of the skull showed an asymmetrically enlarged sella trucica, but pneumoencephalography did not indicate suprasellar extension of the pituitary tumor. Preoperative studies
Hypocycloidal tomograms of the sella turcica and serum prolactin concentrations were obtained in 146 women with amenorrhea, galactorrhea, or both to diagnose prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas. Findings suggesting an adenoma, ie, abnormal tomogram and elevated serum prolactin concentration, were
Case study of a young female patient with severe hypothyroidism due to autoimmune thyroiditis and multiple ovarian cysts is reported. A 14-year 7-month-old girl presented with pelvic and abdominal pain and severe asthenia. Her last menstrual period was 10 months before presentation. Physical
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the prevalence of hyperprolactinemia and thyroid disorders among patients with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) compared with matched controls.
METHODS
In 2013-2014, an observational study of women with AUB (group A) and women with regular menstruation (group B) was undertaken
BACKGROUND
There are multiple adverse effects from anti-epileptic drugs, including menstrual irregularities such as amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, gynecomastia, galactorrhea and polycystic ovary syndrome. In view of the paucity of information, the purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of
This prospective study defines the clinical and biochemical features of acromegaly in a large cohort of patients. There was no difference in sex distribution, and for men and women the mean ages at diagnosis (40 +/- 12 and 40 +/- 14 yr, respectively) were similar. Nearly three-quarters of patients
Intracranial cysts (ICC) may cause a wide spectrum of endocrinological disorders. We evaluated 27 patients who were diagnosed with ICC during investigation for neuroendocrine dysfunctions and reviewed the relevant literature. The types of ICC in the patients were arachnoid cysts (n = 13); Rathke
There can be many reasons for functional hyperprolactinemia, including polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), obesity, insulin resistance and hypoglycemia. Prolactinoma is also a frequent cause. This study included 12 patients (10 girls and 2 boys) aged 14-17 years with hyperprolactinemia. Six patients
Benign endocranial hypertension (BEH) is defined as a syndrome the clinical symptomatology of which includes elevated intracranial pressure without signs of focal injury of the brain. There were 55 BEH patients (52 female and 3 male patients). Changes of endocrine status were found to prevail among
When distinct pituitary hypersecretory manifestations coexist, the differential diagnosis includes plurihormonal or double pituitary adenomas. We describe a rare case of hypercortisolemia and hyperprolactinemia caused by 2 noncontiguous adenomas that required 2
