What is the prognosis for pituitary tumors?
Pituitary tumors are usually curable. Following surgery, adults may gradually resume their normal activities, and children may return to school when the effects of the operation have diminished, and appetite and sense of well-being have returned. Patients should wear medical identification tags identifying their condition and the hormonal replacement medicines they take. Source: The Gale Group. Gale Encyclopedia of Medicine, 3rd ed.
