recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Acta Neurochirurgica"

DOI: 10.1007/s00701-017-3105-4

Abstract: BackgroundThyrotropin-producing adenomas (TSHomas) account for approximately 1–2% of all pituitary tumors. Recently, there has been debate on primary treatment as some studies suggest a high rate of hypopituitarism after transsphenoidal surgery and therefore suggest primary… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Endocrine"

DOI: 10.1007/s12020-018-1656-7

Abstract: PurposeDisorders of water balance, particularly hyponatremia from altered antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion, are a common post-operative complication of transsphenoidal surgery (TSS). We present our results from implementation of a 2-week 1.5 liter/daily fluid restriction on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40618-021-01611-7

Abstract: Sinking of the diaphragma sellae (DS) may stretch the pituitary stalk, which in turn impairs neurohypophyseal function; thus, it may play a role in the development of postoperative hyponatremia. We aimed to assess the factors… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2019.05.007

Abstract: OBJECTIVES Delayed symptomatic hyponatremia is a known phenomenon occurring > 3 days after transsphenoidal surgery. This is a significant cause of post-operative emergency room visits and re-admissions. We describe and characterize post-operative hyponatremia in patients… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.12.039

Abstract: BACKGROUND Although reducing 30-day hospital readmissions is now a priority in neurosurgical quality improvement, postoperative emergency room (ER) visits have remained poorly understood, in particular, in populations with limited access to outpatient care. After endoscopic… read more here.
