A pituitary macroadenoma is a benign tumor that develops in the pituitary gland, a vital organ that controls bodily functions by producing and releasing hormones. These tumors, typically larger than 10 millimeters in diameter, are classified as slow-growing and can cause various symptoms depending on whether the tumor is functional or non-functional. Functional macroadenomas can lead to overproduction of specific hormones, such as growth hormone, prolactin, and Cushing's disease. Non-functional macroadenomas may not produce excess hormones but can cause pressure-related symptoms like headaches, visual disturbances, and hypopituitarism. Diagnosing a pituitary macroadenoma involves a thorough medical history, physical examination, blood tests, imaging studies, and endocrine testing.

Pituitary macroadenoma treatment depends on factors like tumor size, function, symptoms, and patient health. Observation is the initial approach for non-functional tumors, followed by medication for functional tumors like prolactinomas. Surgery is recommended for larger or functional tumors, often using transsphenoidal surgery. Radiation therapy, like stereotactic radiosurgery, is used for tumors that cannot be completely removed or recur after surgery. Neurosurgeons are the primary surgeons for pituitary macroadenoma removal, working with endocrinologists and other specialists to determine the best treatment plan for each patient.
