Abstract

This article is devoted to the literature review on the topic of giant pituitary adenomas. The characteristics of giant pituitary adenomas and various methods of treating the disease will be considered. When diagnosing this disease, a clinical examination is not sufficient; it is necessary to use the neuroimaging method, which makes it possible to determine the degree of the tumor spread and the peculiarities of its location relative to the chiasm. The absolute method of choice for treating giant pituitary adenomas is surgical; other methods are used in special cases or as an adjunct. There is no single algorithm for surgical strategy for managing this disease; this applies to tumors which size exceeds 4 cm in diameter.
