"The endocrine cause of impotence is about 10-15% of all impotence. If hyperprolactinemia is noted, the pituitary adenoma should be suspected. Usually, the early symptom of pituitary adenoma is impotence and other symptoms of CNS appear later. So impotence is a very important clinical symptom not to be neglected. It had taken 8 years to diagnose the pituitary adenoma, whose early symptom was impotence. He received operation and radiotherapy and has been taking care of his sustaining hyperprolactinemia. When we review his past history. it is not overemphasized that impotence is important to diagnose pituitary adenoma."
