Retracted: Clinical Importance of Somatostatin Receptor 2 (SSTR2) and Somatostatin Receptor 5 (SSTR5) Expression in Thyrotropin-Producing Pituitary Adenoma (TSHoma)

ABSTRACT: In the article entitled, “Clinical Importance of Somatostatin Receptor 2 (SSTR2) and Somatostatin Receptor 5 (SSTR5) Expression in Thyrotropin-Producing Pituitary Adenoma (TSHoma)”, which was published in Medical Science Monitor 2017-04-23, Med Sci Monit 2017; 23: 1947-1955, the text has been directly copied from a previously published article entitled, “Immunohistochemical expression of somatostatin receptor subtypes 2 and 5 in thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenomas: a consecutive case series of pituitary adenomas” by Hong-Juan Fang, Yang-Fang Li, Yu Fu, Li-Yong Zhong, and Ya-Zhuo Zhan in Int J Clin Exp Pathol 2017;10(1): 479-488 (www.ijcep.com /ISSN: 1936-2625/IJCEP0042895). Thus, owing to the duplicity of text, the article is being retracted.
