Distinct clonal composition of primary and metastatic adrencorticotrophic hormone‐producing pituitary carcinoma

Abstract excerpt

The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying pituitary tumorigenesis are largely unknown. Previous reports have suggested that aggressive pituitary adenomas and/or carcinomas may be associated with genetic alterations that are distinct from those responsible for the more common and less aggressive pituitary adenomas. Here, we describe the clonal composition of a pituitary carcinoma, its recurrence and its metastasis....
