[The functional pathology of hypophyseal adenomas].
This review summarizes some aspects of pituitary adenoma pathology. A new embracing pituitary adenoma classification has been developed which correlates morphologic findings with endocrine activity. It is based on hormone content, histologic, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural features, cellular composition and cytogenesis, and separates pituitary adenomas into 7 distinct entities.
