Summary

This paper investigates the outcomes of two surgical techniques-nasoseptal double flap and nasoseptal rescue flap-used in endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery for pituitary tumors. The nasoseptal flap technique has significantly reduced the incidence of postoperative Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) leaks but can cause nasal morbidity.

Conditions

  • Pituitary Adenoma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Endoscopic Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery : Double Nasoseptal Flap Technique

Patients with with symptomatic pituitary macroadenoma and tumor size ≥ 2 cm will have transsphenoidal endoscopic excision of pituitary adenoma. -On one side full sized nasoseptal flap will be elevated and a smaller sized nasoseptal flap will be elevated on the other side.

PROCEDURE

Endoscopic Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery : Rescue Flap Technique

Patients with with symptomatic pituitary macroadenoma and tumor size ≥ 2 cm will have transsphenoidal endoscopic excision of pituitary adenoma. \- A horizontal incision will be performed in the nasal septum in a posterior to anterior direction starting from the sphenoid ostium to a point opposite anterior end of the middle turbinate ( approximately up to one half of septum).
