Description

Medical treatment of macroprolactinomas although effective in reducing tumour size, prolactin level and improving patients symptoms, the duration of treatment and the effect of withdrawal of therapy on tumour recurrence is unclear. We describe a case in which we have attempted to treat using high doses of dopamine agonist for a long duration with the hope of a potential cure. We also review the literature on this topic.
