Sjukdomstillstånd i den främre eller bakre hypofysen som oftast yttrar sig som överproduktion eller underproduktion av hypofyshormoner. Vävnadsförändringar i hypofysen kan även förorsaka kompression av synnervskorsningen och andra angränsande strukturer.
Disorders involving either the ADENOHYPOPHYSIS or the NEUROHYPOPHYSIS. These diseases usually manifest as hypersecretion or hyposecretion of PITUITARY HORMONES. Neoplastic pituitary masses can also cause compression of the OPTIC CHIASM and other adjacent structures.
