Visual morbidity in macroprolactinoma: A retrospective cohort study.

In our cohort of 150 patients with macroprolactinoma, 40 patients (26.7%) presented with visual field defects, of which 61.5% achieved complete visual recovery with treatment. Patients that achieved complete visual recovery presented with smaller macroadenomas, lower serum prolactin levels, lower rates of central hypogonadism and central hypothyroidism, lower rates of compressive optic neuropathy and better visual acuity.
