to assess endocrinologic completeness of transethmoidal trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomy and the relation between postoperative pituitary hormone levels and relief of bone pain , we tested pituitary reserve by measuring base-line values of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone , thyrotropin-relasing-factor-stimulated thyrotropin and prolactin , and levodopa-stimulated growth hormone after hypophysectomy in 15 menopausal women with metastatic breast cancer .
