Prognosis of hyperpituitariam depends on the hormone level affected.
Whether the patient has been treated with surgery to remove the tumor. For hyperprolactinemia: The undetectable level (<2 µg/L) of prolactin predicts cure with more than 90% probability. On the contrary, higher values within the reference range indicate incomplete removal of the adenoma. Postoperative serum GH levels: Basal serum GH levels obtained immediately after surgery suggest the outcome of tumor recurrence in children with GH-releasing adenomas. The higher the GH levels are, the worse of the prognosis will be. For hyperpituitariam resulting from corticotropinoma: The concentration of plasma cortisol concentration in the morning and corticotropin concentration over 24 consecutive hours measured 4-7 days after surgery may demonstrate the prognosis. The lower the concentrations are, the better outcomes will be.
