Acknowledgments:
With this book, we dedicate it to Professor Du Zuwei, who has devoted his entire life to the development of neurosurgery in China. As a patriotic scholar, he harbored a deep sense of national duty and introduced a wealth of equipment and innovative academic ideas to our country in the 1970s. With his exceptional medical skills, he trained many outstanding young physicians. At the age of 70, he continues to mentor the next generation of neurosurgeons, truly an exemplary master teacher. His earnest teachings have left an indelible impression on me!
Based on extensive research from domestic and international sources, as well as his years of clinical experience, Professor Hui Guozhen wrote this book on pituitary tumors. While introducing the normal anatomy and physiology of the pituitary gland, as well as the pathology, etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of pituitary tumors, the book places special emphasis on new theories, technologies, and methods related to pituitary tumor diseases. It is currently the most comprehensive and detailed reference available in China on pituitary tumor diseases. This book not only provides valuable clinical references for neurosurgeons but also deepens their understanding of the underlying basic knowledge. It exemplifies the integration of basic research and clinical practice, demonstrating strong practicality.
