Abstract

The pituitary gland is really a confederation of several relatively independent endocrine glands gathered together in close relationship to the hypothalamus which exerts considerable governing control. Each of these sub-glands of the pituitary should be considered separately in every case of pituitary disease. While such an approach is mandatory in dealing with laboratory investigation, it also is profitable in considering clinical and therapeutic aspects of each case to ensure that nothing is overlooked.
