摘要
Transsphenoidal surgery is the first-line treatment for non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA); however, optimal management of residual tumor after surgery remains actively debated. Although dopamine agonists do not promote appreciable tumor shrinkage in NFPA, the author of this Viewpoint suggests that these agents could be used to prevent tumor re-enlargement.
