suggest other causes for the hyperprolactinemia. Only 25 (9%) endocrinologists believed that PRL levels >250 ng/mL could occur in microadenoma, macroprolactinoma, macroprolactinemia or drug-induced hyperprolactinemia. Of the endocrinologists surveyed, 281

remains unclear. Many reports have described spontaneous pituitary haemorrhage in prolactinomas ( 4 , 5 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 26 ). However, the rate of pituitary apoplexy in macroprolactinomas treated with dopamine agonists is reported to be 1–6%, which was
