When cancer or tumors affect the hormone-producing glands of the body, specialized expertise is essential.
At Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, our Endocrinology team provides expert evaluation, diagnosis, and management for both benign and malignant endocrine disorders. We care for patients with conditions involving the thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal glands, pituitary gland, and pancreas, including rare and complex tumors. These diseases may lead to hormone imbalances that impact multiple organs and overall health.
Cancers we treat
Our endocrinologists work closely with endocrine surgeons, medical oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, and nuclear medicine specialists to deliver personalized, multidisciplinary care for patients with these conditions:
- Pituitary tumors
- Thyroid/parathyroid nodules and cancer
- Adrenal gland tumors
- Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) I and II
- Neuroendocrine tumors like Insulinoma
- Pancreatic islet cell tumors
Managing endocrine disorders
Cancer and the therapies used to treat it can disrupt the body's hormonal balance and cause long-term complications. Treating the tumor itself just isn't enough. We go beyond treatment by anticipating and managing side effects with a specific plan tailored to suit your needs. Endocrine disorders involve many areas of the body and can cause chronic medical issues, including:
- Type 1 Diabetes
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Steroid induced hyperglycemia
- Hypopituitarism
- Hypo- and Hyperthyroidism
- Adrenal insufficiency and Cushing disease
- Hypogonadism
- Hyperparathyroidism
- Osteoporosis
