[Gonadotropic pituitary adenoma and pregnancy. Value of bromocriptine].

The authors report a case of pituitary adenoma with positive immunospecific staining for beta-FSH and serum alpha subunit. The tumour was revealed by an amenorrhoea-galactorrhoea syndrome with hyperprolactinaemia and without increase in serum gonadotrophin values. Pregnancy occurred during bromocriptine treatment which made it possible to control an hemianopsia developed in the fourth month of gestation. The adenoma was successfully removed a few months later.
