AB  - Inadequate  production  of  anterior  pituitary  hormones  leads  to  features  of  hypopituitarism.  Impaired  production  of  one  or  more  of  the  anterior  pituitary  trophic  hormones  can  result  from  inherited  disorders;  more  commonly,  adult  hypopituitarism  is  acquired  and  reflects  the  compressive  mass  effects  of  tumors  or  the  consequences  of  local  pituitary  or  hypothalamic  traumatic,  inflammatory,  or  vascular  damage.  These  processes  also  may  impair  synthesis  or  secretion  of  hypothalamic  hormones,  with  resultant  pituitary  failure  (Table  4-1).
