RE: [ACEsthetics] Pituitary adenoma

Terry, the diagnosis can be 90% from a MRI.  Biopsy is next and no fun.  If it is benign, they can freeze it or irradiate it.  We’ve had a couple of friends hit by this.  Both were benign and hard to nail way back then but things are much better now.  They can burn a hair off a gnat’s ass.  What concerns me is 3 cm is huge.  How would they know a tumor that size is pituitary related.  I’m thinking about you now every day buddy.  If you need an in at Emory let me know.  You are in an area of tremendously skilled physicians.  Just find the best.  That’s a large lesion.

Subject: [ACEsthetics] Pituitary adenoma

 

ACE friends … My youngest son’s wife just called to let me know that he has had a dx of pituitary adenoma from an MRI.  The lesion she says is 3 mm.  My question is: How and can a diagnosis like this be made from just an MRI?   His wife said that he had a seizure at work some weeks ago and he is complaining of pain behind his eyes.  There are some other symptoms and I would post privately to anyone who believes that those may be extra important.

Thanks,

Terry
