[Disorders of viscero-autonomic and neurohumoral regulation in tumors of sellar-diencephalic localization].

: Twenty-nine patients with varying degrees of hypothalamic lesion were studied for disorders of viscero-vegetative and neurohumoral regulation. Three types of impairments were identified: intact under-compensated, reduced, and perverted. The type of disorders was found to correlate with the degree of the impact of the pathologic process on the hypothalamic structures. It is emphasized that preoperative examination of the central hemodynamics and biogenic amines allows the prediction of their impairment in the postoperative period.
