title: [Endocrinological evaluation of sellar and suprasellar tumor cases (author's transl)].
abstract: 1) Pituitary function of 9 cases of tuberculum sellae meningioma was examined, before and after surgery (3 weeks, 1 year and 2 years after surgery). 2) In all cases ACTH, LH, FSH and prolactin responses were normal throughout pre- and postoperative courses. 3) GH and TSH were normoreactive in almost all cases preoperatively. Postoperatively GH and TSH were hyporeactive 3 weeks after surgery, but recovered to normal 1 or 2 years after surgery.
