Wu Anhua and Gao Wei from the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University: Standardizing the diagnosis and treatment of pituitary tumors, doctors and patients work together to avoid "tumor" regrets

The pituitary gland is located on the ventral side of the hypothalamus and is one of the most complex endocrine glands in the human body. The pituitary gland can secrete a variety of hormones, such as growth hormone and gonadotropin, which play an important role in the growth, development, and metabolism of the human body. The pituitary gland is divided into the adenohypophysis and the neurohypophysis, and most pituitary tumors occur in the adenohypophysis.

Pituitary tumors are relatively common and can be divided into many types according to the different hormones they secrete, and produce different results. For example, growth hormone tumors can lead to acromegaly, and prolactinomas can lead to lactation. There are many clinical treatments for pituitary tumors, including surgery, drug therapy, radiotherapy, etc., which require multidisciplinary consultation to develop a scientific treatment strategy. At the same time, patients with pituitary tumors should also follow up regularly during the treatment process and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Doctors and patients work together to create a good prognosis.

Shanghai Media Group's famous doctors at sea specially invited Wu Anhua, director of the Department of Neurosurgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University, and Gao Wei, a neurosurgeon, to jointly present a live video broadcast titled "Standardizing the diagnosis and treatment of pituitary tumors, doctors and patients work together to avoid "tumor" regrets."
