Abstract

The article presents information on the announcement made by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) related to the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO). The USPTO recently announced that the U.S. applicants will be able to designate KIPO as the International Search and Examination Authority for their PCT applications starting January 1, 2006. The designation of KIPO as the International Searching Authority and International Preliminary Examination Authority will give substantial benefits in terms of lower official fees if a PCT application enters the Korean national phase.

Abstract

To investigate the characteristics of incidental pituitary microadenomas, we examined 120 pituitary glands from Korean forensic autopsy cases, from which eight tumors were identified (incidence 6.7%). The average age of the affected subjects was 50 yr (range: 33-96 yr) with a female predominance. The maximum diameters of the tumors ranged from 0.4 to 5.4 mm (mean: 2.8 mm). Immunohistochemical analysis of pituitary hormones revealed three growth hormone-secreting adenomas, one prolactin-producing adenoma, one gonadotropin-producing adenoma, one plurihormonal adenoma, and two null cell adenomas. MIB-1 staining for Ki-67 antigen showed no positive expression. The microvessel density (MVD) of the pituitary microadenomas ranged from 2.3 to 11.6% (mean: 5.3%) and was significantly lower than that of nonneoplastic pituitary glands (11.9-20.1%, mean: 14.8%). Our study provides reference data on incidental pituitary microadenomas in the Korean population.
