Congenital morphological alteration of pituitary gland is a rare disease often associated with isolated or multiple hormonal deficiency. So far only few genes have been shown to be implicated in a small number of these cases.Aim of this study was to evaluate putative genetic alteration by an array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) in 19 adulthood patients, 16 males and 3 females, affected by congenital morphological alteration of the pi...
