Diagnosis and treatment of pituitary tumorsJürgen Kreutzer
Department of Neurosurgery, University of Erlangen, 91054 Erlangen, Germany
Curr Opin Neurol 17:693-703. 2004....
Nuclear beta-catenin accumulation associates with epithelial morphogenesis in craniopharyngiomasRolf Buslei
Department of Neuropathology, Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen Nuremberg, Krankenhausstrasse 8 10, 91054 Erlangen, Germany
Acta Neuropathol 113:585-90. 2007..Our data support an impact of nuclear beta-catenin on different cytoarchitectural and epithelial differentiation patterns in adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas...
Nuclear beta-catenin accumulation as reliable marker for the differentiation between cystic craniopharyngiomas and rathke cleft cysts: a clinico-pathologic approachBernd M Hofmann
Department of Neurosurgery, University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
Am J Surg Pathol 30:1595-603. 2006..The data are compatible with distinct pathogenic pathways associated with these related histopathologic entities...
Common mutations of beta-catenin in adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas but not in other tumours originating from the sellar regionRolf Buslei
Department of Neuropathology, Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen Nuremberg, Krankenhausstrasse 8 10, 91054, Erlangen, Germany
Acta Neuropathol 109:589-97. 2005..We conclude that beta-catenin mutations and/or nuclear accumulation serve as diagnostic hallmarks of the adamantinomatous variant, setting it apart from the papillary variant of craniopharyngioma...
Abundant hypermethylation of SOCS-1 in clinically silent pituitary adenomasRolf Buslei
Department of Neuropathology, Friedrich Alexander University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Krankenhausstrasse 8 10, 91054, Erlangen, Germany
Acta Neuropathol 111:264-71. 2006..The data is compatible with epigenetic silencing of the SOCS-1 gene and constitutive activation of the JAK-STAT pathway in PA. This appears to contribute particularly to those tumours characterized by a hormone-inactive status...
Transsphenoidal decompression of the sellar floor for cavernous sinus meningiomas: experience with 21 patientsHiroyoshi Akutsu
Department of Neurosurgery, University of Erlangen Nurnberg, Erlangen, Germany
Neurosurgery 65:54-62; discussion 62. 2009..The aim of this study was to assess the outcome of cranial nerve and endocrine function after transsphenoidal decompression for symptomatic cavernous sinus (CS) meningioma...
Primary hypophysitis: clinical-pathological correlationsAngelika Gutenberg
Department of Neurosurgery, Georg August University Gottingen, Gottingen, Germany
Eur J Endocrinol 155:101-7. 2006..Primary hypophysitis comprises of three distinct histomorphological entities: lymphocytic, granulomatous and xanthomatous. Clinical features of the three subtypes for diagnostic and treatment strategies have yet not been well characterized...

Department of Neurosurgery, University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
Neurosurgery 58:1108-18; discussion 1108-18. 2006..The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of transsphenoidal selective adenomectomy alone or in combination with adjuvant therapy in treatment of recurrent Cushing's disease...
Acromegaly per se does not increase the risk for coronary artery diseaseHiroyoshi Akutsu
Department of Neurosurgery, Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
Eur J Endocrinol 162:879-86. 2010..Information about the risk and course of coronary artery disease (CAD) in acromegaly is limited...
Transsphenoidal surgery in acromegaly investigated by intraoperative high-field magnetic resonance imagingRudolf Fahlbusch
Department of Neurosurgery, , Germany
Eur J Endocrinol 153:239-48. 2005..However, taking GH as the tumor marker, even intraoperative high-field MRI was not able to detect tumor remnants in every case...
