Currently, many AIP mutations responsible for the development of pituitary adenomas have been described. Penetence of pituitary adenomas in AIP-positive FIPA families is incomplete and varies widely. Data on the characteristics of metabolic changes in patients with familial pituitary adenomas associated with mutations in the AIP gene continues to be inadequate. Evaluation of the results of molecular genetic studies, as well as a thorough analysis of metabolic changes in these clinical cases, will help to develop and improve diagnostic and treatment algorithms, identify patient groups that require special attention of endocrinologists, timely screening, aggressive treatment, and careful dynamic observation.
