Semple, Patrick Lyle Peter, J C Neurosurgery Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 98-112). Pituitary apoplexy is an uncommon, yet potentially fatal illness, usually the result of infarction, hemorrhage or a combination of both in a pituitary tumor. The management of pituitary apoplexy consists of replacement therapy and in the majority of patients, surgical decompression, although some cases may be treated conservatively. Up to now no study has attempted to separate the two histopathological types of pituitary apoplexy or to analyze their clinical and radiological significance on presentation and outcome. 2014-07-28T14:29:26Z 2014-07-28T14:29:26Z 2008 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/2890 eng application/pdf Division of Neurosurgery Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
