Malignant prolactinoma with extracranial metastases: a report of three cases

Abstract

These three patients may be added to the previous two reported cases of malignant prolactinoma with extracranial spread. Several different therapies were tried but were of limited value in controlling the progression of the disease, although chemotherapy is an important modality to be considered. No particular factor or combination of factors at presentation differentiated these patients from more typical patients whose disease is much less aggressive.
