UK guidelines for the management of pituitary apoplexy - Society for Endocrinology


It is hoped that the document will provide guidance for physicians, endocrinologists, neurosurgeons and ophthalmologists. The purpose of the guidelines is to encourage the widespread adoption of harmonized good practice in the diagnosis and management of patients with pituitary apoplexy. The guidelines are also intended to provide a basis for local and national audit and recommendations that are suitable for the audit process have been included in section 9.
