Abstract
Partial or complete deficiency of anterior or posterior pituitary hormone production leads to central hypoadrenalism, central hypothyroidism, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, growth hormone deficiency, or arginine vasopressin deficiency depending on the hormones affected. Hypopituitarism is rare and likely to be underdiagnosed, with an unknown but rising incidence and prevalence. The most common cause is compressive growth or ablation of a pituitary or hypothalamic mass. Less common causes include genetic mutations, hypophysitis (especially in the context of cancer immunotherapy), infiltrative and infectious disease, and traumatic brain injury. Clinical features vary with timing of onset, cause, and number of pituitary axes disrupted. Diagnosis requires measurement of basal circulating hormone concentrations and confirmatory hormone stimulation testing as needed. Treatment is aimed at replacement of deficient hormones. Increased mortality might persist despite treatment, particularly in younger patients, females, and those with arginine vasopressin deficiency. Patients with complex diagnoses, pregnant patients, and adolescent pituitary-deficient patients transitioning to adulthood should ideally be managed at a pituitary tumour centre of excellence.

Abstract
Pituitary adenomas are rare in children and young people under the age of 19 (hereafter referred to as CYP) but they pose some different diagnostic and management challenges in this age group than in adults. These rare neoplasms can disrupt maturational, visual, intellectual and developmental processes and, in CYP, they tend to have more occult presentation, aggressive behaviour and are more likely to have a genetic basis than in adults. Through standardized AGREE II methodology, literature review and Delphi consensus, a multidisciplinary expert group developed 74 pragmatic management recommendations aimed at optimizing care for CYP in the first-ever comprehensive consensus guideline to cover the care of CYP with pituitary adenoma. Part 2 of this consensus guideline details 57 recommendations for paediatric patients with prolactinomas, Cushing disease, growth hormone excess causing gigantism and acromegaly, clinically non-functioning adenomas, and the rare TSHomas. Compared with adult patients with pituitary adenomas, we highlight that, in the CYP group, there is a greater proportion of functioning tumours, including macroprolactinomas, greater likelihood of underlying genetic disease, more corticotrophinomas in boys aged under 10 years than in girls and difficulty of peri-pubertal diagnosis of growth hormone excess. Collaboration with pituitary specialists caring for adult patients, as part of commissioned and centralized multidisciplinary teams, is key for optimizing management, transition and lifelong care and facilitates the collection of health-related quality of survival outcomes of novel medical, surgical and radiotherapeutic treatments, which are currently largely missing.

Abstract
Tumours of the anterior part of the pituitary gland represent just 1% of all childhood (aged <15 years) intracranial neoplasms, yet they can confer high morbidity and little evidence and guidance is in place for their management. Between 2014 and 2022, a multidisciplinary expert group systematically developed the first comprehensive clinical practice consensus guideline for children and young people under the age 19 years (hereafter referred to as CYP) presenting with a suspected pituitary adenoma to inform specialist care and improve health outcomes. Through robust literature searches and a Delphi consensus exercise with an international Delphi consensus panel of experts, the available scientific evidence and expert opinions were consolidated into 74 recommendations. Part 1 of this consensus guideline includes 17 pragmatic management recommendations related to clinical care, neuroimaging, visual assessment, histopathology, genetics, pituitary surgery and radiotherapy. While in many aspects the care for CYP is similar to that of adults, key differences exist, particularly in aetiology and presentation. CYP with suspected pituitary adenomas require careful clinical examination, appropriate hormonal work-up, dedicated pituitary imaging and visual assessment. Consideration should be given to the potential for syndromic disease and genetic assessment. Multidisciplinary discussion at both the local and national levels can be key for management. Surgery should be performed in specialist centres. The collection of outcome data on novel modalities of medical treatment, surgical intervention and radiotherapy is essential for optimal future treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE Craniopharyngiomas can be aggressive leading to significant complications and morbidity. It is not clear whether there are any predictive factors for incidence or outcomes. Our aim was therefore to record the incidence, presentation, characteristics and progression of paediatric craniopharyngiomas in the West of Scotland. METHOD Retrospective case note review for children diagnosed with paediatric craniopharyngiomas at the Royal Hospital for Children Glasgow, from 1995 to 2021 was conducted. All analyses were conducted using GraphPad Prism 9.4.0. RESULTS Of 21 patients diagnosed with craniopharyngiomas, the most common presenting symptoms were headaches (17/21, 81%); visual impairment (13/21, 62%); vomiting (9/21, 43%) and growth failure (7/21, 33%). Seventeen (81%) patients underwent hydrocephalus and/or resection surgery within 3 months of diagnosis, usually within the first 2 weeks (13/21, 62%). Subtotal resection surgeries were performed in 71% of patients, and median time between subsequent resection surgeries for tumour recurrence was 4 years (0,11). BMI SDS increased at 5 year follow-up (p = 0.021) with 43% being obese (BMI > + 2SD). More patients acquired hypopituitarism post-operatively (14/16, 88%) compared to pre-operatively (4/15, 27%). A greater incidence of craniopharyngiomas were reported in more affluent areas (10/21, 48%) (SIMD score 8-10) compared to more deprived areas (6/10, 29%) (SIMD score 1-3). Five patients (24%) died with a median time between diagnosis and death of 9 years (6,13). CONCLUSION Over 25 years the management of craniopharyngioma has changed substantially. Co-morbidities such as obesity are difficult to manage post-operatively and mortality risk can be up to 25% according to our cohort.

Front Oncol 2023; 13:1326595.

Abstract
Adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) presents a significant challenge to neurosurgeons despite its benign histology due to its aggressive behavior and unique growth patterns. This narrative review explores the evolving landscape of ACP treatments and their efficacy, highlighting the continuous development in therapeutic approaches in recent years. Traditionally, complete resection was the primary treatment for ACP, but surgical -related morbidity have led to a shift. The invasive nature of the finger-like protrusions in the histological structure results in a higher recurrence rate for ACP compared to papillary craniopharyngioma (PCP), even after complete macroscopic resection. Given this, combining subtotal resection with adjuvant radiotherapy has shown potential for achieving similar tumor control rates and potentially positive endocrine effects. Simultaneously, adjuvant treatments (such as radiotherapy, intracystic treatment, and catheter implantation) following limited surgery offer alternative approaches for sustained disease control while minimizing morbidity and alleviating clinical symptoms. Additionally, advances in understanding the molecular pathways of ACP have paved the way for targeted drugs, showing promise for therapy. There is a diversity of treatment models for ACP, and determining the optimal approach remains a subject of ongoing debate in the present context. In order to achieve a good-term quality of life (QOL), the main goal of the cyst disappearance or reduction of surgical treatment is still the main. Additionally, there should be a greater emphasis on personalized treatment at this particular stage and the consideration of ACP as a potentially chronic neurosurgical condition. This review navigates the evolving landscape of ACP therapies, fostering ongoing discussions in this complex field.

Outcome after proton beam therapy versus photon-based radiation therapy in childhood-onset craniopharyngioma patients-results of KRANIOPHARYNGEOM 2007. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1180993. [PMID: 37965466 PMCID: PMC10641508 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1180993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Proton beam therapy (PBT) is being increas16ingly used to treat residual craniopharyngioma (CP) after hypothalamus-sparing surgery. Compared to photon-based radiation therapy (XRT) with PBT, less irradiation in the penumbra reduces the scattered dose to critical organs neighboring but outside the area of treatment, minimizing the risk of sequelae. Patients and methods Between 2007 and 2019, 99 of 290 (34%) childhood-onset CP patients recruited in KRANIOPHARYNGEOM 2007 received external radiation therapy (RT) (65% PBT, 35% XRT). Outcome was analyzed in terms of survival, endocrinological and anthropometric parameters (BMI and height SDS), quality of life (QoL using PEDQOL), and functional capacity (FMH) with special regard to irradiation technique. Results PBT became predominant (used in 43% and 72% of all irradiated patients registered within the first and second halves of the recruitment period, between 2008 and 2013 and 2013 and 2018, respectively). Five-year event-free survival rates after PBT or XRT were comparable (92% ± 4% vs. 91% ± 4%, p = 0.42) and higher than for the whole cohort since diagnosis, including non-RT patients (37% ± 4%). Radiation doses to the hypothalamus and pituitary did not differ between PBT and XRT. Endocrine deficits due to disturbances of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis (HPA) were already common before irradiation. During the first 5 years after CP diagnosis/RT, no differences between PBT, XRT, and non-RT CP patients concerning functional capacity and anthropometric parameters have been obtained. Only for the PEDQOL domain "physical function", parental-assessed QoL was lower 12 months after PBT versus XRT or non-RT patients. Conclusion QoL, functional capacity, degree of obesity, and endocrinopathy varied over time from diagnosis, but by 5 years, there was no significant difference between PBT and XRT upfront or delayed, nor was there any compromise in historic survival rates, which remained high >90%. RT of any type is extremely effective at stabilizing disease after hypothalamic-sparing surgery. The purported specific benefits of PBT-reducing sequelae are not proven in this study where the organ of critical interest is itself diseased, increasing an urgent need to better address and treat the tumor-induced endocrine harm from diagnosis in dedicated pituitary services. Other hypothesized benefits of PBT versus XRT on vascular events and secondary cancers await longer comparison.
