Dramatic volume reduction of a large GH/TSH secreting pituitary tumor with short term Octreotide therapy.

John L D Atkinson1, Charles F Abboud, John I Lane.   

Abstract

A case is presented of a huge GH/TSH secreting tumor and marked volumetric reduction in size with only one week of Octreotide therapy. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of such a dramatic volumetric response to short-term Octreotide therapy.
