Olfactory outcomes after endoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.
BACKGROUND Olfaction has been demonstrated to have a great impact on patients' lives. Transsphenoidal endoscopic pituitary surgery is associated with potentially significant damage to olfactory tissues, but to date this issue has been only poorly documented in the literature. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study comparing olfactory outcomes pre- and postpituitary surgery. METHOD Patients w...
متن کاملIndication and Limitations of Endoscopic Extended Transsphenoidal Surgery for Craniopharyngioma
The transsphenoidal approach has been utilized in intrasellar craniopharyngioma surgeries. However, the advent of endoscopic extended transsphenoidal approach (EETSA) has expanded its indication to suprasellar craniopharyngiomas. We compared the indication and limitations of EETSA to those of unilateral basal interhemispheric approach (UBIHA), which presents similar indications for surgery. We ...
متن کاملPterional versus Endoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Surgery for Resection of Tuberculum Sellae Meningioma: Comparative Assessment of Opthalmological and Surgical Outcomes
Objective A Comparatively study of effectiveness and safety of traditional pterional surgery (TPS) and endoscopic endonasal trans-sphenoidal suirgery (EETS) for resection of Tuberculum sellae meningioma using visual and gross total resection as outcome measures. Methods A PUBMED and MEDLINE (2002-2014) search were performed to identify the series for tuberculum sellae meningioma (TSM) resected...
متن کاملOutcome of Endoscopy-Assisted Microscopic Extended Transsphenoidal Surgery for Suprasellar Adult Craniopharyngiomas
Craniopharyngiomas are difficult to treat. The extended transsphenoidal approach has recently been described in several small series. We describe the usefulness of microscopy-assisted angled endoscopy for visualizing vital structures such as tumor attachment or tumor invasion to the pituitary stalk to achieve confident radical tumor removal. Between 2006 and 2010, 15 patients underwent the micr...
متن کاملOlfactory and sinonasal outcomes in endoscopic transsphenoidal skull-base surgery.
BACKGROUND Endoscopic anterior skull-base surgery has been previously suggested to cause a significant deterioration in olfactory function. Given the impact on quality of life, the objective of this study was to determine the effect of a unilateral middle-turbinate-sacrificing approach on olfactory function and sinonasal outcome. METHODS Prospective cohort study comparing olfactory and sinona...
