Recommendations
As issued by the authors
Radiotherapy indication and timing should be assessed by expert multidisciplinary tumor boards, including a radiation oncologist
Technique determined according to patient and adenoma characteristics
In functioning adenomas, control hormonal secretion while waiting for maximal radiotherapy efficacy
Long-term follow-up >10 years is required to assess delayed efficacy, recurrence and side effects; relatively low medium-term risk with modern techniques
