OVERVIEW

This course is a case-based overview and discussion of the evaluation, management, and treatments -- including medical, surgical, and radiation -- of pituitary tumors. The sessions will yield multiple clinical pearls with direct application in practice. The pituitary gland plays an enormously important role in human development, the maintenance of various essential physiologic functions. For this reason, there are a variety of pituitary disorders that can have a profound impact on multiple organ systems. General practitioners and even specialists in endocrinology may not be fully aware of the widespread impact of the pituitary gland in health and disease; the function of this course is to educate and inform the medical audience about pituitary disease. The conference will comprise lectures, case-based talks, and Q & A panel sessions.
