Abstract UntiI 2013, there were no randomized prospective triaIs of pureIy endoscopic versus microscopic pituitary tumor removaI, and many neurosurgeons stiII perform microscopic pituitary tumor removaI wthout the endoscope or wth Iimited endoscopic assistance. (M.Nancy, et aI, 2013). This study seeks to address the question if whether the endoscopic transsphenoidaI approach for pituitary macroadenomas is repIacing the microscopic transsphenoidaI surgery for pituitary adenomas. |
