Abstract
Because of the poor results and the morbidity associated with surgical and radiation treatment of pituitary adenomas, investigators continue to search for new pharmacologic tools to treat anterior pituitary hyperfunction. New drugs are being studied in the treatment of acromegaly, Cushing's disease, and galactorrhea-amenorrhea, infertility, and impotence associated with prolactin-secreting pituitary tumors.
