话,成功率大概有多大呢?谢谢! | l**********n 发帖数: 27 | | y*****g 发帖数: 193 | 3 There is a surgery called transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma. It
's a relative easy surgery done by neurosurgery team. Patient checks in on
the same operation day, surgery about 1 or 2 hours, stays in ICU for one day
, then stay in regular floor for one or two days, then go home.
We had a lot of patients like this, it's piece of cake in ICU. I have never
seen patients failed the surgery in my hospital. | c********e 发帖数: 496 | 4 transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma is good one, minor, no scar,
less invasive and less complication, but only indicated in the treatment of
small tumor.
roughly the indications include
if small and non functional, obeserve.
if small and functional, transsphenoidal resection or chemo
if big, surgery, but this is a tough one. there are many important
anatomical structure around pituitary gland.
if reoccur after operation, radiotherapy. |
