Abstract:
Objective:To discuss the surgical efficacy of neuroendoscopic transsphenoidal approach for the removal of pituitary cystic lesion.Methods:Clinical data and efficacy of 32 patients with neuroendoscopic transsphenoidal surgery and pathological diagnosis of pituitary cystic lesion in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from March 2013 to May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Of the 32 patients, 29 patients were pathologically diagnosed with Rathke cysts and 3 patients with pituitary arachnoid cysts. The content of cyst could be completely removed and the relationship between cyst and sellarseptum and subarachnoid space could be clearly observed by using endoscopy. After followed-up for 0.5-1.0 year, headic, dizziness and visual impairment were improved. One patient relapsed, without serious complications or death.Conclusions:Transsphenoidal neuroendoscopic surgery is a safe and effective treatment for pituitary cystic lesion.
