pubmed:abstractText
The somatostatin analog octreotide has been demonstrated to improve optic tract compression caused by pituitary macroadenomas within hours of its administration and/or reduce tumor size in some patients. We report the results of a prospective multicenter study of the effects of octreotide on visual function and tumor size in patients with nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas or gonadotropin-secreting adenomas.
