Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2001
Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery was developed under a minimally invasive surgical strategy. This endonasal transsphenoidal endoscopy eliminates a sublabial or transfixional incision, the use of a transsphenoidal retractor and any nasal packing.Reported are 160 patients who had undergone endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery from 1993 to 1999.

Transsphenoidal surgery

Pituitary, 2008
Transsphenoidal surgery has evolved much over nearly 100 years. Initially operations were performed often without any input from endocrinology colleagues, and without preoperative imaging, operative magnification and illumination. Advances in the understanding of the biology of pituitary tumours, close co-operation between endocrinologists, surgeons ...

Endoscopy and Transsphenoidal Surgery

Neurosurgery, 2004
ENDOSCOPY OFFERS INTERNAL visualization of many different cavities of the human body, with its specific vision inside the anatomy, close to the target area. The view of the surgical field in transsphenoidal surgery had been obtained with the naked eye from its beginning in 1907 up to the introduction of the operating microscope by Jules Hardy in the ...

Endoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Surgery

Neurosurgery, 2004
Abstract THE ENDOSCOPIC ENDONASAL TRANSSPHENOIDAL approach is a minimally invasive surgical technique for the removal of sellar and parasellar lesions. The procedure is performed via an anterior sphenoidotomy. The two main characteristics of the endoscopic approach, when compared with the standard microsurgical operation, arise from the ...

Evolution of Transsphenoidal Surgery

2003
The transsphenoidal route is the dominant approach to the pituitary and sellar area and is utilized for more than 95% of the surgical indications in this region. Pituitary adenomas represent the third most common primary intracranial tumor after gliomas and meningiomas, with a percentage of more than 15% in most series reported in the literature and ...

Microscope transsphenoidal surgery

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2012
The transsphenoidal approach to the pituitary using the microscope has undergone continuous modification since its introduction by Hardy over 50 years ago. It is one of the most effective and safest of major neurosurgical procedures with excellent outcomes and low complication rates.Although being displaced by the endoscopic approach, it remains the ...

Vascular Complications of Transsphenoidal Surgery

Pituitary, 1999
Vascular complication of transsphenoidal surgery can lead to mortality and serious morbidity. In a series of 3,061 transsphenoidal operations for pituitary disease, 24 such complications were encountered, seven of which were fatal. The anatomic substrate for such complications is discussed, along with technical aspects of surgery and other methods for ...
