Abstract

One of the urgent problems of neurosurgery and endocrinology is the early diagnosis of pituitary tumors, which rank third among the neoplasms of the nervous system [1]. Patients with these tumors account for 13.3% of all patients with neurooncological pathology, about 75% of them are people aged 20 to 50 years [1]. On the territory of Russia, the annual increase in the number of patients with pituitary adenomas reaches 3000, while 80-100 thousand patients need treatment or active observation [3].
