Figure 2.
Number of hypopituitary patients in whom surgery was performed due to pituitary disease, presented in hypopituitary patients with central hypothyroidism (n = 90) vs. without central hypothyroidism (n = 18) (A), in patients with central hypothyroidism and low TSH (n = 52) vs. normal TSH (n = 38) and also vs. without central hypothyroidism (n = 18) (B) and in non-treated patients with central hypothyroidism and low TSH (n = 49) vs. normal TSH (n = 33) and also vs. non-treated patients without central hypothyroidism (n = 14) (C). The percentage of patients in whom surgery was performed is marked in gray. * p < 0.05 vs. low TSH.
