PIT-EASY survey: validation of the European Pituitary Pathology Group proposal for reporting pituitary neuroendocrine tumors.

The aim of this multicenter prospective survey called PIT-EASY was to assess the relevance of the European Pituitary Pathology Group (EPPG) diagnostic tools for pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) to improve the quality of their histological diagnosis. Each center performed at least 30 histological cases of PitNETs using the EPPG tools and assessed their value using a scorecard with 10 questions. For each center, the histological cases were carried out by pathologists with varying levels of expertise in pituitary pathology defined as junior, intermediate, and expert.
