Postoperative growth hormone dynamics in clinically nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma

Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is an endocrine disorder characterized by insufficient production of growth hormone (GH). Non-functioning pituitary adenoma (NFPA) is one of common causes of GHD. Although most patients with NFPA have transsphenoidal surgery, the time-dependent changes in GH after operation have yet to be investigated. In this study, we analyzed patients with NFPAs that underwent transsphenoidal surgery. Postoperatively, GH...
