This study checks long-term health in people who were treated successfully for Cushing disease when they were under 21. It also collects information from family members to study genetic links to pituitary tumors.
This study looks at how changes in estrogen before diagnosis affect the growth of prolactin-secreting pituitary tumors (prolactinomas). The goal is to understand why some tumors are larger than others.
This trial tests whether a special coil can be placed during pituitary tumor surgery to improve imaging while the surgeon is operating. It may help surgeons see the pituitary area in real time during a transsphenoidal (through the nose) operation.
This is an observational study that follows people who have or may develop parathyroid-related conditions. The goal is to better understand how these problems change over time and what patterns show up, which can help improve future care.
This study looks at people with known or suspected hormone (endocrine) conditions. It aims to improve understanding and clinical screening so doctors can better manage these conditions over time.
This study is collecting information from people with rare diseases of the pituitary gland or nearby areas. It aims to better understand these conditions and improve care.
