A case with the coexistence of a microprolactinoma and suprasellar craniopharyngioma lactotroph hyperplasia is presented. Loss of inhibitory hypothalamic dopaminergic input may have played a role in hyperprolactinemia and the proliferation of pituitary lactotrophs. This is believed to be the first published case of suprasellar craniopharyngioma with this association.
本文报告1例微泌乳素瘤与鞍上颅咽管瘤并存且伴有催乳素细胞增生的病例。下丘脑多巴胺能抑制性输入的丧失可能在高泌乳素血症及垂体催乳素细胞增殖中发挥了作用。据信,这是首例发表的伴有这种关联的鞍上颅咽管瘤病例。
