PITUITARY GLAND

THE MASTER GLAND

HISTORY OF TRANSSPHENOIDAL SURGERY

  • March 1907 Hermann Schloffer reported the first

successful removal of a pituitary tumor (transnasal, TS)

  • 1909 Theodor Kocher modification (transnasal,

transeptal/submucosal)

  • 1910 Albert Halstead proposed a sublabial gingival

incision

  • June 1910 Harvey Cushing performs the first

sublabial, transeptal TS

  • June 1910 Oskar Hirsch performs the first endonasal,

transeptal TS

HISTORY OF TRANSSPHENOIDAL SURGERY

1910–1925

Harvey Cushing performed 231 TS with 5.6% mortality

1929–1965

Transcranial approach dominated in North America

NO NORMAN N DO DOTT

  • Rockefeller Fellow, 1923-1924
  • Neurosurgeon at the Royal Infirmary of

Edinburgh

  • Continued performing TS surgery until 1962
  • Improved illumination with a modified

speculum with lights

  • (0 mortality in 80 patients)

GE GERARD GU GUIOT

  • Neurosurgeon at the Hospital Foch
  • Performed TS surgery from 1956-

1981 (over 1000 cases)

  • Introduced televised fluoroscopy
  • Changed the position to semisitting
  • Combined surgery with

postoperative radiation therapy

7

JULES HARDY

  • Worked as a fellow with Guiot
  • Continued to use fluoroscopy but added

preoperative angiography and intraoperative pneumoencephalography

  • Introduced the use of the operating microscope

and developed specialized instruments

  • 1968, he introduced the concept of

microadenomas

CHARLES B. WILSON

  • performed over 3500 TS
  • Curative resection possible with preservation
  • f gland
  • Minimize need for radiotherapy
  • Improved safety of surgery

HISTORY OF TRANSSPHENOIDAL SURGERY

  • Since 2001
  • The endonasal transsphenoidal surgery

was developed and exclusively used for resection of pituitary lesions

  • Anterior mucosal incision was eliminated
  • Nasal Packings were eliminated
  • Endoscope was utilized for complicated cases
  • Over 3000 endonasal transsphenoidal surgeries

have been performed

  • High cure rates and even lower morbidity were

achieved 10

MAXIMIZE TUMOR RESECTION

  • MOST TUMORS CAN BE CURED SURGICALLY IF AN

ATTEMPT TO REMOVE 100% OF THE TUMOR IS MADE

  • SOME TUMORS CAN NEVER BE CURED BY

SURGERY ALONE, REGARDLESS OF EXPERIENCE

MINIMIZE COMPLICATIONS

  • FOR BENIGN TUMORS, MINIMIZING

COMPLICATIONS IS CRITICAL

  • PRESERVE/IMPROVE VISION
  • PRESERVE/IMPROVE THE PITUITARY GLAND

FUNCTION

  • IF THE GLAND IS WORKING, KEEP THE

GLAND WORKING

  • MINIMIZE RISK OF SPINAL FLUID LEAK
  • MINIMIZE RISK OF ARTERIAL INJURY

Best Surgical Outcomes

19

WHY ARE NOT ALL PITUTIARY TUMORS CURABLE BY SURGERY

  • Not all tumors are the same
  • Invasion into the cavernous sinus
  • Firmness of the tumor
  • Vascularity of the tumor
  • Biology of the tumor

THE GOOD

Should be curable by most surgeons

21

THE BAD

Difficult to treat, but still can be cured

22

1/25/20 12

THE UGLY

Gross invasion into the cavernous sinus, can not be cured by surgery alone

COMPLICATION RATES CORRELATE WITH EXPERIENCE

  • CONCLUSION: This unadjusted analysis does not support the hypothesis that endoscopic

visualization improves extent of tumor resection over microscopic surgery for nonfunctioning

  • adenomas. A multivariate analysis of independent predictors of extent of resection is

forthcoming.
