The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with hypophysis adenomas was used to investigate its effect on organotypic cultures of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of 10-11 day old chick embryo. Only the CSF from patients with prolactinoma showed a neurite-stimulating effect compared with other hypophysis adenomas.
