Endoscopic endonasal skull-base surgery is performed routinely allowing for maximal resection of selected tumors of the pituitary gland and surrounding structures. The transsphenoidal surgery takes advantage of the space afforded by the nose and paranasal sinuses allowing for expansive exposures while working entirely within the confines of the nose and nasal cavity, see videos below. The surgical team involves dedicated neurosurgeons and otolaryngologists who work closely before, during and after the transsphenoidal surgery to assure excellent outcomes.
