Prolactinomas

Prolactinomas are the most common type of pituitary adenomas and the most common cause of hyperprolactinemia. There are several pitfalls in the evaluation of hyperprolactinemia, which should be recognized as they affect management decisions. Medical therapy with dopamine agonists is the first-line treatment for prolactinomas. Transsphenoidal surgery is indicated in cases of intolerance or resistance to dopamine agonist therapy.
