  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

The existence of the prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma was confirmed by Forbes in 1954. By the develop. ment of radioimmunoassay, functional pituitary tumors are being diagnosed with much greater frequency. Prolactin-secreting tumors are said to form :30% of all the functional pituitary tumors.

Operation and irradiation are cornmon as the therapy of pituitary tumors, but we have often net with recurrent cases. Bromocriptine is a dopamine receptor stimulant and reduces serum prolactin and human growth hormone levels. Therefore, it has been used for the treatment of acromegaly, galactorrhoea-amenorrhoea syndrome, parkinsonism and so on.
