[Basophilic adenoma in combination with a prolapse of adenohypophyseal tissue through the capsule].
During the post-mortem examination of a 15-year patient who had died after the operation connected with incision of commissures a distorted form of the hypophysis was noted. Histological, histochemical and morphometric investigations showed that there was basophilic adenoma of adenohypophysis and prolapse of the tissue (beyond the borders of the adenoma) through a fistula against the background of changes characteristic of chronic diseases in childhood. Oxyphilic shift, moreover, was noted not only in the first zone of the adenohypophysis, but in other zones, as well as with a simultaneous increase in number of basophiles in I--III zones. Prolapse of the tissue, the latter being normal as far as the tumours growth was concerned, through the fistula took place at a considerable distance from the adenoma, which justifies the consideration of this process as a result of hyperplasia not connected with adenoma. Edges of the fistula bordering the prolapse, haemorrhages were to be seen.
