Veterinary Endocrinology: The 4 Most Common Disorders Of The Pituitary Gland In Dogs

Cushing’s disease is the most common disorder of the pituitary gland diagnosed in dogs.

Cushing’s disease is also known as hyperadrenocorticism.

Calcinosis cutis is a rare clinical sign of Cushing’s disease.

Mitotane is the classical treatment for hyperadrenocorticism.

Trilostane is another medication effective in the treatment of Cushing’s disease.

Adrenal gland tumors are more difficult to treat and surgical removal is the only option.

Adult-onset Panhypopituitarism is another condition that affects dogs.

Juvenile-onset Panhypopituitarism is also known as Pituitary dwarfism.

Central Diabetes Insipidus and Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus are also disorders of the Pituitary gland.
