Traumatic brain injury and subarachnoid haemorrhage are conditions at high risk for hypopituitarism: screening study at 3 months after the brain injury

Abstract

TBI and SAH are conditions associated with high risk of acquired hypopituitarism. The pituitary defect is often multiple and severe GHD is the most frequent defect. Thus neuroendocrine evaluations are always mandatory in patients after brain injuries.
