[Hemodynamics and myocardial contractility in chromophobe adenoma of the pituitary gland after conservative, and surgical treatment].

Mechano- and polycardiographic methods were applied before and after the treatment to study the cardiovascular system in 35 patients suffering from chromophobic adenoma of the hypophysis. Both conservative treatment with the use of gamma irradiation and surgical removal of the tumour leads to normalization of hemodynamic parameters. Contractile capacity of the myocardium remained unchanged after gamma therapy and diminished after surgical treatment.
