Abstract
- This article discusses the establishment of a national pituitary surgical research platform called RAPID, which aims to improve patient care and surgical outcomes for pituitary disorders. The initial focus of the collaboration is on Cushing's disease. The study provides an overview of the patient cohort, surgical outcomes, and lays the foundation for future research. The data collected from nine academic pituitary centers shows that 528 patients with Cushing's disease were treated by 26 neurosurgeons from 2003 to 2023. The report highlights insights into surgical outcomes and disease recurrence rates across different surgeons and environments. The collaboration is expected to advance the standard of care for patients with pituitary disorders. [Extracted from the article]
