Pituitary Clinic

Pituitary diseases are among those conditions whose diagnosis can be delayed because their symptoms may resemble many other illnesses. Delayed treatment can, in some cases, lead to irreversible consequences. Today, thanks to advances in imaging methods, laboratory techniques, and treatment approaches, more successful outcomes are being achieved in the diagnosis and treatment of pituitary gland-related diseases. At Yeditepe University Pituitary Diseases Clinic, in addition to early diagnosis and treatment services, educational programs on the subject are also conducted, and collaborative work is carried out with international organizations.
Furthermore, Yeditepe University Pituitary Diseases Clinic continues to serve not only patients but also physicians. In the multidisciplinary meetings held weekly at Yeditepe University Koşuyolu Hospital, pituitary diseases and pituitary tumors are evaluated with the participation of physicians from various specialties. Physicians can attend these meetings with the cases they wish to discuss.
