lüll Nelson syndrome: comprehensive review of pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management Banasiak MJ; Malek ARNeurosurg Focus 2007[]; 23 (3): E13Nelson syndrome (NS) is a rare clinical manifestation of an enlarging pituitary adenoma that can occur following bilateral adrenal gland removal performed for the treatment of Cushing disease. It is characterized by excess adreno-corticotropin secretion and hyperpigmentation of the skin and mucus membranes. The authors present a comprehensive review of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of NS. Corticotroph adenomas in NS remain challenging tumors that can lead to significant rates of morbidity and mortality. A better understanding of the natural history of NS, advances in neurophysiology and neuroimaging, and growing experience with surgical intervention and radiation have expanded the repertoire of treatments. Currently available treatments include surgical, radiation, and medical therapy. Although the primary treatment for each tumor type may vary, it is important to consider all of the available options and select the one that is most appropriate for the individual case, particularly in cases of lesions resistant to intervention.|*Nelson Syndrome/diagnosis/physiopathology/therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Neurotransmitter Agents/therapeutic use[MESH]|Radiosurgery[MESH]|Risk Factors[MESH] |
