Aggressive pituitary tumours and carcinomas: two sides of the same coin?

Jacqueline Trouillas et al. Eur J Endocrinol. 2018 Jun.

Abstract

The European Society of Endocrinology (ESE) survey reported on the largest cohort of 125 aggressive pituitary tumours (APT) and 40 pituitary carcinomas (PC). Whilst the survey focused on treatment effectiveness, all pathological data were not explored in detail. Here, we comment on some interesting pathological findings, notably the difference between APT and PC.
