The specific pathologies and their most common presenting features were nonfunctioning adenomas (incidental headaches and vision loss), prolactinomas (galactorrhea, menstrual irregularity, and headache), growth hormone-secreting adenomas (enlarging extremities and sweating), adrenocorticotropic hormone-secreting adenoma (easy bruising, muscle wasting, and weight gain) and nonpituitary lesions (incidental, headaches, and vision problems). This evidence concerns the gene POMC and adenoma.
