Postoperative polyuria due to diabetes insipidus (DI) is commonly reported complication of pituitary surgery. However, central DI postabdominal surgery is rare and related to unmasking of pre-existing DI or prolonged surgery with significant intraoperative blood loss. A thorough workup needs to be performed to exclude central DI in such patients.

Stalking the stalk: Isolated pituitary stalk thickening and predictive factors for proliferative disease.
Neurooncol Adv
December 2024
Division of Hematology/Oncology, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Background: Few studies have evaluated predictive factors of isolated pituitary stalk thickening (iPST) in children.
Methods: In this retrospective study, radiology, endocrinology, and neuro-oncology databases were interrogated to identify patients with iPST between January 2000 and June 2019. A blinded, longitudinal assessment of MRIs was performed using quantitative, semi-quantitative, and qualitative metrics.
Factors affecting hormonal outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for non-functioning pituitary neuroendocrine tumors: a prospective observational study.
Neurosurg Rev
December 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Sawai Man Singh Medical College, Jaipur, Rajasthan, 302004, India.
Surgical resection of non-functioning pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (NF-PitNET) is associated with new onset hormonal axis (HA) dysfunction, and factors predicting HA dysfunction are controversial, especially in large and giant NF-PitNET. Thus, we evaluated the postoperative hormonal function and assessed factors affecting HA dysfunction in patients with NF-PitNET. This prospective observational study involved 50 patients who underwent endoscopic surgical resection of NF-PitNET in the Department of Neurosurgery (April 2023-March 2024).

Cancer Rep (Hoboken)
December 2024
Department of Hematology and Clinical Immunology, Yokohama City University Graduate School of Medicine, Yokohama, Japan.
Background: Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare form of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with diverse clinical manifestations, often associated with mutations in the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) pathway. BRAF and KRAS mutations, which are driver mutations of oncogenes, participate in the same signaling pathway (MAPK/ERK pathway) and are usually mutually exclusive. We report a case of ECD with concurrent BRAF and KRAS mutations treated using BRAF and MEK inhibitors.

December 2024
Department of ENT and Head & Neck Surgery, Seth GS Medical College & K.E.M. Hospital, Mumbai, India.
Introduction: Wolfram syndrome, a rare autosomal recessive disorder, is characterised by diabetes insipidus, juvenile diabetes mellitus, optic nerve atrophy and deafness (DIDMOAD).
Case Report: We present a case of a 21-year-old male diagnosed with Wolfram syndrome who underwent cochlear implantation due to progressive hearing loss. The patient first complained of bilateral hearing loss at the age of 8 years.
Macroprolactinoma in an adolescent female with primary amenorrhoea.
Endocrinol Diabetes Metab Case Rep
October 2024
Summary: Paediatric pituitary adenomas are rare in children and adolescents and differ from adults in both clinical presentation and management. We present the case of a 14-year-old female with primary amenorrhoea secondary to a macroprolactinoma, showing a modest radiological and biochemical response to dopamine agonist (DA) therapy. Despite a 10-month duration of increasing DA therapy, initial symptoms of primary amenorrhoea and hyperprolactinaemia persisted, with new symptoms of weight gain, lethargy and low mood.
