Pituitary cancer is a rare form of brain cancer that develops from the pituitary gland in the brain. The pituitary gland, also known as the hypophysis, controls many important bodily functions through the release of hormones. Pituitary cancer is usually benign and noncancerous; however, it can be challenging to treat as the gland plays a critical role in regulating other hormone-producing organs and tissues. Due to the gland’s location deep within the brain and its intricate relationship with other endocrine glands, complete surgical removal of pituitary cancer is often difficult and riskier than other brain cancers. As a result, pituitary cancer patients require lifelong monitoring and hormone replacement therapy alongside other treatment options like radiation and chemotherapy.
The global Pituitary Cancer Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 180 million in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.6% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
