L'Endocrinologo Aims and scope

Sommario

L’apoplessia ipofisaria rappresenta un’emergenza medico-chirurgica la cui gestione compete a un esperto team multidisciplinare composto da endocrinologi, radiologi, oculisti e neurochirurghi. Una tempestiva diagnosi e un’adeguata valutazione delle conseguenze neuro-oftalmologiche e endocrinologiche sono essenziali per l’adozione di interventi terapeutici equilibrati ed efficaci, finalizzati primariamente alla salvaguardia delle capacità visive. Il rischio di ipopituitarismo è elevato e l’iposurrenalismo in particolare svolge un ruolo cruciale sul decorso clinico.
