oooohhh... this is such a precious message and lovely pictures...
 i was so exhausted last night
i just couldn't reply back any more...
but i was talking to my Mother on the phone before bed
and looking at the amazing candlelight flame
that looked so real from the lovely candles you sent
and your message was so very touching & kind...
i remembered how you kept my thread going
last year i think it was ...
 when i was going through so much then, too
All these sweet messages from all of you
i thought my heart was going to overflow with emotion
You are all so very precious thank you seems so inadequate

From OncoLog, September 2004, Vol. 49, No. 9 Printer-friendly version New Approaches to Managing Tumors of the Pituitary Gland Offer Patients Hope by Ellen McDonald Dr. Ian E. McCutcheon, a professor in the Department of Neurosurgery, holds the tools he needs for surgically removing pituitary gland tumors through the nose: a Hardy speculum, which is used to open the nasal corridor, and pituitary microscissors, which are used to make fine cuts in pituitary glands and tumors. Patients with tumors of the pituitary gland generally find themselves in a uniquely frustrating position: On the one hand, they learn the good news that many of these tumors are asymptomatic and that death from such tumors is very rare. On the other hand, they soon learn that they face a lifetime of potentially debilitating illness often necessitating multiple interventions, lifelong hormone replacement therapy, and long-term follow-up care. At The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, several advances in treating pituitary tumors offer new hope to patients: Successful surgical resections of these tumors are becoming more common, a clinical trial comparing two drugs used in the medical treatment of acromegaly is under way, and the projected opening of the institution’s proton therapy facility in 2006 may provide an improved means of irradiating pituitary tumors without damaging normal surrounding tissues. Understanding the pituitary tumor Tumors of the pituitary gland are generally slow-growing benign adenomas that are classified as either functional (60%), meaning that they hypersecrete one or more hormones, or nonfunctional (40%), meaning that they secrete no hormones but instead are just masses of cells. These tumor masses can compress the pituitary gland itself, which can cause hormone deficiency, or adjacent structures such as the optic nerve, which can lead to disturbances in and loss of vision. “Although pituitary tumors generally do not metastasize and do not have mitotic features, they can sometimes behave in a very locally aggressive manner,” said Rena V. Sellin, M.D., a professor in the Department of Endocrine Neoplasia and Hormonal Disorders at M. D. Anderson. “Although usually benign, they can recur again and again.” According to Steven G. Waguespack, M.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Endocrine Neoplasia and Hormonal Disorders, there are three questions that should be asked when treating patients with these tumors: 1) Is the tumor making a hormone that is causing a clinical syndrome—growth hormone in acromegaly, adrenocorticotropic hormone in Cushing’s disease, or prolactin, which can cause hypogonadism (low estrogen or testosterone levels) and abnormal breast milk production?; 2) Is the tumor preventing the pituitary gland from working normally, thereby causing one or more hormone deficiencies?; and 3) Is the tumor mass causing visual loss or affecting other cranial nerves? The etiology of pituitary tumors is generally unknown, and their incidence has been variously reported. “The incidence of pituitary tumors across the board is about one in seven people,” said Ian E. McCutcheon, M.D., a professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at M. D. Anderson and president of the Pituitary Network Association who recently helped conduct a meta-analysis of published studies on the incidence of these tumors, which appeared in Cancer. However, only 5% of people with pituitary tumors will ever have any symptoms related to the tumor. Treatment approaches Treatment of benign pituitary tumors consists of surgery, radiotherapy, medical therapy, or a combination of these methods. The indications for surgery depend on the size and type (functional or nonfunctional) of the pituitary tumor involved. “Usually, with the functional ones, we start with an operation to try to remove as much of the tumor as we possibly can because the disruption of excess hormone is typically causing profoundly negative changes for the patient,” observed Dr. McCutcheon. An exception to surgical treatment of functional tumors occurs in prolactinomas, which are generally responsive to medical therapy. “In the nonfunctional category,” Dr. McCutcheon continued, “the reason to operate is to protect the optic system from a large or expanding tumor.” According to Dr. McCutcheon, approximately 95% of the operations performed on pituitary tumors at M. D. Anderson use a transsphenoidal approach, following a route along the inside of the nose; the remaining 5% are craniotomies. Dr. McCutcheon pointed out that the first transsphenoidal surgery in Texas was performed at M. D. Anderson by Milam E. Leavens, M.D., former Ashbel Smith professor emeritus of neurosurgery in the Department of Neurosurgery (and Dr. McCutcheon’s predecessor). Pathology Lauren A. Langford, M.D., an associate professor in the Department of Pathology at M. D. Anderson, noted that 10% to 15% of primary brain tumors diagnosed each year are pituitary tumors. Pathologists determine which hormones are being produced by the tumor cells and what is in the cells “to complement the data obtained by the endocrinologist’s full battery of hormonal tests,” she explained. In addition, results from immunohistochemical stains can be obtained quickly; a special reticulum stain performed during surgery to see whether the subunits of the pituitary gland are intact takes about 15 minutes. “If they are intact, then we think the specimen is probably normal tissue,” she said. This information can be invaluable to the operating surgeon, not to mention the patient. Pathologists also use the fact that pituitary adenomas shed their cells to distinguish them from normal tissue. Dr. Langford shares the following advice with her trainees: “Pituitary tumors are very difficult; spend a lot of time on them, look at a lot of them, because you have a person’s whole hormonal axis in your hand.” this news grieves me soo much
and i do sooo appreciate
all of your love & prayers
