Abstract
Thirty-three surgical specimens of pituitary adenomas were examined by immunoperoxidase staining, and light and electron microscopy. The different types of tumor cells were distinguishable by the size of the secretory granules, the electron density and the intracellular organelles which they contained. Based on the results of this study and the previous descriptions of other investigators, the ultrastructural identification of human pituitary cells may be helpful for a greater understanding of the pituitary adenoma.
