Abstract

Individuals with pituitary tumors are faced with changes in their physical appearance, different emotional responses, lifestyle changes, and recurrent diagnostic tests. Although the pituitary tumor is benign, the patients may encounter severe morbidity and even mortality. It is very important to increase the patient’s and family members’ knowledge, to meet their needs and to provide supportive care in terms of signs and symptoms, treatment and care of the disease. Education and counseling within the nursing care is critical in helping individuals with pituitary tumors to reach optimal health conditions and reduce hospitalization length. In this review, nursing care of an individual with pituitary tumor is explained in terms of nursing process which is a scientific problem solving method in nursing. (JNNN 2018;7(2):86–92)
