Abstract:
Functioning gonadotroph adenomas (FGA) are pituitary tumors secreting biologically active gonadotropins.Because of its low incidence,it can be diagnosed only in evident clinical manifestations,and clinicians are often not able to make right diagnosis.The published literature includes only small case series or individual case reports.In this review,we will focus on the main presenting manifestations,the reported management options,and the long-term outcome of the FGA.
