Popis: | Background: Although a nodular thyroid disease is higher in patients with pituitary adenoma, concurrent thyroid cancer with pituitary tumor is uncommon.

Thyroidectomy was done and patient is well after three years follow-up. Conclusion: We suggest the patient with functional pituitary adenoma be evaluated for thyroid tumor. |
