Microscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery for Pituitary Adenomas in Children and Adolescents
Background & Aim: We described the presentation, management and subsequent treatment outcomes of children and adolescents diagnosed with a pituitary adenoma in a joint neuroendocrine setting followed up by a single service as well as assessing long-term outcomes in terms of endocrine status and neurology symptoms. Methods & Materials/Patients: A total of 21 participants with histologically v...

Routine classification of pituitary adenomas is not appropriate for diagnosis of adenoma type and in some cases there is inconcordance between clinical presentation and histological type of adenoma. The aim of this study was to determine the type of adenoma secretion based on immunohistochemical staining. 102 paraffin blocked specimens of pituitary adenoma were stained with hormone ...
متن کاملManagement of Pituitary Adenomas: Mononostril Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery
Introduction: The endoscopic transsphenoidal approach for pituitary adenomas and other sellar lesions is quickly becoming the procedure of choice in their surgical management. The most common approach is binostril three-hand technique which requires a large exposure and subjects both nasal cavities to potential trauma. To reduce nasal morbidity, we employ a mononostril two-hand technique with t...
متن کاملEndoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Approach for Pituitary Adenomas: a Prospective Review of Our Early Experience
Background & Aim: Pituitary adenomas are a part of a dissimilar group of benign neoplasms. The development of endoscopic techniques for surgery of paranasal sinuses has increased the opportunity for an endoscopic approach with regard to the pituitary gland. Minimally invasive endoscopic pituitary surgery, in turn, permits a more thorough tumor resection and fewer associated surgical complicatio...
متن کاملThe Molecular Pathogenesis of Pituitary Adenomas: An Update
Pituitary tumors represent the most common intracranial neoplasms accompanying serious morbidity through mass effects and inappropriate secretion of pituitary hormones. Understanding the etiology of pituitary tumorigenesis will facilitate the development of satisfactory treatment for pituitary adenomas. Although the pathogenesis of pituitary adenomas is largely unknown, considerable evidence in...
