Pituitary adenomas that extend to the ventricular system are extremely rare. We present a 5-year natural history of giant null cell pituitary adenoma with invasion into cavernous sinus extending third ventricle. MRI series were available could be useful for neurosurgeons, ophthalmologists, and endocrinologists as well radiologists. Patients diagnosis certain according radiological clinical examination should consulted by neurosurgeon experienced in endoscopic endonasal surgery,...
Purpose: To assess the features of visual impairments in patients with giant pituitary adenoma (GPA) extension to ventricular system showing different directions tumor growth and chiasm positions improve early diagnosis chiasmal syndrome. Material Methods: We retrospectively examined medical records 41 GPA who were treated at Endonasal Neurosurgery Department, Romodanov Institute between 2016 2021. Patients divided into three groups based on direction position: group 1, antesellar and/or...
Objective. To improve the results of surgical treatment neurooncological patients with complex defects soft tissues cranial vault using trapezius musculocutaneous flaps (TMF).Маterials and methods. During period from September 2016 to March 2017, 3 were observed after removal large giant advaced extra-intracranial malignant tumors. Reconstruction tissue was performed horizontal (2) vertical (1) flaps.Results. The location direction dominant vessels determines two possible variants...
Intracranial teratomas are tumors that occur mainly in childhood and extremely rare adulthood. They account up to 50% congenital CNS tumors. In this article a case of mature teratoma 33 year-old female patient with progressive visual impairment is presented. Differential diagnosis at preoperative stage was difficult. Outcome analysis neuroimaging study method clinical picture provided evidence epidermal cyst. Transnasal endoscopic approach as treatment chosen, but during the surgery atypical...
Objective – to optimizate of surgical treatment tactics in patients with around-sellar meningiomas involving optic canal. Materials and methods. The work is based on analysis results 93 (31 (33.3 %) men 62 (66.7 women) mean age was 54.6 ± 5.3 years. tumor involve the canal recognized preoperatively according MRI (39 cases, 41.9 as an intraoperative finding (54 58.1 %). According this material divided into two clinical subgroups: first group early extradural decompression nerve performed,...
Objective ‒ to evaluate the results of extended endonasal interventions in patients with craniopharyngioma (CPH) and giant pituitary adenoma (GPA) an extension ventricular system, compare effects these pathologies, determine basic principles endoscopic surgical interventions. Materials methods. The study is based on a retrospective analysis endoscopically operated through nose Department Endonasal Neurosurgery Skull base SI «Romodanov Institute NAMS Ukraine» from 2014 2021. In group GPA were...
Objective: to estimate the results of endoscopic endonasal surgical management giant pituitary adenomas (GPAs) with extension into ventricular system (VS), study peculiarities techniques. Materials and methods. 49 adult patients GPAs VS were included in study. The depth research 2016-2021. This is a consecutive sampling 1339 adenomas. made up 3.66% (49/1339) among all treated adenomas, 43.4% 113 GPAs. Distribution by gender – 18 (36.7%) women 31 (63.3%) men. Average age was 54.1±11.3 years....
