Abstract:
Objective To explore the best indication of neuroendoscopic surgery in patients with pituitary tumors by comparing the clinical effects of neuroendoscopic transsphenoidal surgery on patients with different types of pituitary tumors.MethodsA total of 92 patients with different types of pituitary adenoma received transsphenoidal approach under neuroendoscopy in our hospital from June 2016 to October2017 were selected, the surgical results were evaluated by comparing the postoperative hormone levels were normal or not and the tumor were resected or not.The patients were followed up, the physiological function (PF), physiological function (RP), emotional functions (RE) was determined by health measurement scale (SF-36) to evaluated the quality of life of patients.Results There were differences in clinical efficacy of neuroendoscopy for the treatment of different types of pituitary adenoma, the cure rate from high to low in turn was cortical hormone adenomas, growth hormone adenomas, prolactin adenomas, mixed adenoma, non-functional adenomas, the cure rate of functional pituitary adenoma was obviously higher than that of no functional pituitary adenoma, the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).At 6 months after surgery, SF-36 result showed that PF scores was (76.30±8.68), RP scores was (78.37±19.05), RE scores was (71.54±21.54), and at 12 months after surgery, PF scores was (87.20±9.24), RP scores was (78.66±15.18) and RE scores was (87.80±17.67), which were higher in patients with functional pituitary adenoma than those in patients with non-functional pituitary adenoma, the differences were significant (P＜0.05).ConclusionThe treatment of functional pituitary tumor by neuroendoscopic surgery, especially corticosteroid adenoma, has the best effect, and can significantly improve the quality of life of patients.
